These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the Company’s management team. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events, or results of operations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to, statements about:
● | the commercialization of our products and services; |

● | our ability to identify, in-license, or acquire additional technology; |
● | our ability to maintain our existing license, manufacturing, and supply agreements; |
● | our ability to compete with other companies currently marketing or engaged in the development of ultrasound imaging devices, many of which have greater financial and marketing resources than us; |

● | our financial performance. |
These statements may be preceded by, followed by, or include the words “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “plans,” “scheduled,” “anticipates,” “intends,” similar expressions or phrases, or the negative of those expressions or phrases. The forward-looking statements are based on projections prepared by, and are the responsibility of, the Company’s management. Although the Company believes that its plans, intentions, and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot assure you that it will achieve or realize these plans, intentions, or expectations. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions relating to, among other things:
● | our rapid growth may not be sustainable and depends on our ability to attract and retain customers; |
● | our business could be harmed if we fail to manage our growth effectively; |
● | our projections are subject to risks, assumptions, estimates, and uncertainties; |
● | our business is subject to a variety of U.S. and foreign laws, which are subject to change and could adversely affect our business; |
● | the pricing of our products and services, and reimbursement for medical procedures conducted using our products and services; |
● | changes in applicable laws or regulations; |
● | failure to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition; |
● | the ability to maintain the listing of our Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange; and |
● | economic downturns and political and market conditions beyond our control could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. |
These and other risks and uncertainties are described in greater detail under the caption “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K”), in Item 1A of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and in other filings that we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The risks described under the caption “Risk Factors” are not exhaustive. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all such risk factors, nor can the Company assess the impact of all such risk factors on its business or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. You should not put undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. The Company undertakes no obligations to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

BUTTERFLY NETWORK, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
The Company is an innovative digital health business transforming care with handheld, whole-body ultrasound. Powered by its proprietary Ultrasound-on-Chip™ technology, the solution enables the acquisition of imaging information from an affordable, powerful device that fits in a healthcare professional’s pocket with a combination of cloud-connected software and hardware technology.
The Company was incorporated in Delaware on February 4, 2020 as Longview Acquisition Corp. (“Longview”). Following a business combination between the Company and BFLY Operations, Inc. (formerly Butterfly Network, Inc.) on February 12, 2021 (the “Business Combination”), the Company’s legal name became Butterfly Network, Inc.
The Company operates wholly-owned subsidiaries in Australia, Germany, Netherlands, Taiwan, and the United Kingdom.
Although the Company has incurred recurring losses in each year since inception, the Company expects its cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund operations for at least the next twelve months.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and the accounting disclosure rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, included herein, was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures, including certain notes, required by U.S. GAAP for annual reporting.
Certain prior period amounts presented on the statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. See the Operating expenses – Other section of this note for additional information regarding these reclassifications.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter, the year ending December 31, 2023, or any other period.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2023, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were invested in money market accounts with one financial institution. The Company also maintains balances in various operating accounts above federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any significant losses on such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk of its cash and cash equivalents.
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable. No customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
8
Segment Reporting
The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), reviews the Company’s financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating its financial performance. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it operates as a
reportable segment. Substantially all of the Company’s long-lived assets are located in the United States. Since the Company operates as a single reporting segment, all required segment reporting disclosures can be found in the condensed consolidated financial statements.Use of Estimates
The Company makes estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in its condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates these estimates, judgments, and assumptions.
The Company bases its estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes to the Company’s use of estimates as described in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Operating expenses – Other
The Company classifies certain operating expenses that are not representative of the Company’s ongoing operations as other on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. These include costs related to the Company’s reduction in force, litigation, and legal settlements. To conform to current period presentation, $

Note 3. Revenue Recognition
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers by product type and by geographical market. The Company believes that these categories aggregate the payor types by nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of its revenue streams. The following table summarizes the Company’s disaggregated revenue (in thousands):

Contract Balances
Contract balances represent amounts presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets when the Company has either transferred goods or services to the customer or the customer has paid consideration to the Company under the contract. These contract balances include accounts receivable and deferred revenue. The Company recognizes a receivable when it has an unconditional right to payment, and payment terms are typically
Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $
Note 4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value estimates of financial instruments are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments. As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair value.
The Company measures fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The Company utilizes a three-tier hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
● | Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access. |
● | Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
10
● | Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 3 inputs. |
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term or on-demand nature of these instruments.
There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels during the periods ended March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
The Company’s outstanding warrants include publicly traded warrants (the “Public Warrants”) which were issued as
The Company’s investments in marketable securities were ownership interests in mutual funds. The equity securities were stated at fair value, as determined by quoted market prices. As the securities had readily determinable fair value, unrealized gains and losses were reported as other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Subsequent gains or losses realized upon redemption or sale of these securities were also recorded as other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company considered all of its investments in marketable securities as available for use in current operations and therefore classified these securities within current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not recognize any unrealized gains or losses related to equity securities still held as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The Company determined the fair value of its Public Warrants as Level 1 financial instruments, as they are traded in active markets. Because any transfer of Private Warrants from the initial holder of the Private Warrants would result in the Private Warrants having substantially the same terms as the Public Warrants, management determined that the fair value of each Private Warrant is the same as that of a Public Warrant. Accordingly, the Private Warrants are classified as Level 2 financial instruments.

Note 10. Net Loss Per Share
We compute net loss per share of Class A and Class B common stock using the two-class method. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of each class of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of the Company’s common stock, including those presented in the table below, to the extent dilutive. Basic and diluted net loss per share was the same for each period presented as the inclusion of all potential shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding would have been anti-dilutive.

As the Company uses the two-class method required for companies with multiple classes of common stock, the following tables present the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share for each class of the Company’s common stock outstanding (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

For the periods presented above, the net loss per share amounts are the same for Class A and Class B common stock because the holders of each class are entitled to equal per share dividends or distributions in liquidation in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation. The undistributed earnings for each year are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of the Class A and Class B common stock as if the earnings for the year had been distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis.

Commitments
Leases:
The Company primarily enters into leases for office space that are classified as operating leases. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, total lease cost was $
Purchase commitments:
The Company enters into inventory purchase commitments with third-party manufacturers in the ordinary course of business, including a non-cancellable inventory supply agreement with a certain third-party manufacturing vendor. The provisions of the agreement allowed the Company, once it reached a certain cumulative purchase threshold in the fourth quarter of 2021, to pay for a portion of the subsequent inventory purchases using an advance previously paid to the vendor. As of March 31, 2023, the aggregate amount of minimum inventory purchase commitments is $
The Company applied the guidance in Topic 330, Inventory to assess the purchase commitment and related loss, using such factors as Company-specific forecasts which are reliant on the Company’s limited sales history, agreement-specific provisions, macroeconomic factors, and market and industry trends. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not recognize any additions to the accrued purchase commitment liability, or any related losses, based on its purchase commitment assessment as there were no significant changes to the assessment factors.
The Company reviews its inventory on hand, including inventory acquired under the purchase commitments, for excess and obsolescence (“E&O”) on a quarterly basis. Any E&O inventory acquired that was previously accounted for as a purchase commitment liability accrual or vendor advance write down is recorded at zero value. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company utilized $
Contingencies
The Company is involved in litigation and legal matters from time to time, which have arisen in the normal course of business. Although the ultimate results of these matters are not currently determinable, management does not expect that they will have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive loss, or statements of cash flows.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our condensed consolidated results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described under the caption “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in Item 1A of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as filed with the SEC. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
Overview
We are an innovative digital health business transforming care with hand-held, whole-body ultrasound. Powered by our proprietary Ultrasound-on-Chip™ technology, our solution enables the acquisition of imaging information from an affordable, powerful device that fits in a healthcare professional’s pocket with a unique combination of cloud-connected software and hardware technology that is easily accessed through a mobile app.
Butterfly iQ+ is an ultrasound device that can perform whole-body imaging in a single handheld probe using semiconductor technology. Our Ultrasound-on-Chip™ makes ultrasound more accessible outside of large healthcare institutions, while our software is intended to make the product easy to use, fully integrated with the clinical workflow and accessible on a user’s smartphone, tablet and almost any hospital computer system connected to the Internet. We aim to enable the delivery of imaging information anywhere at point-of-care to drive earlier detection throughout the body and remote management of health conditions. We market and sell the Butterfly system, which includes probes, related accessories and software subscriptions, to healthcare systems, physicians and healthcare providers through a direct sales force, distributors and our eCommerce channel.
Key Performance Measures
We review the key performance measures discussed below to evaluate the business and measure performance, identify trends, formulate plans and make strategic decisions. Our key performance measures may fluctuate over time as the adoption of our devices increases, which may shift the revenue mix more toward software and other services. The quarterly metrics may be impacted by the timing of device sales.
Units fulfilled
We define units fulfilled as the number of devices whereby control is transferred to a customer. We do not adjust this measure for returns as our volume of returns has historically been low. We view units fulfilled as a key indicator of the growth of our business. We believe that this metric is useful to investors because it presents our core growth and the performance of our business period over period.
18
Units fulfilled decreased by 1,590 units, or 31.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to decreased device sales volume across all of our sales channels, including direct and distributor sales and eCommerce.
Software and other services mix
We define software and other services mix as a percentage of our total revenue recognized in a reporting period that is based on software subscriptions and other related services, consisting primarily of our software as a service (“SaaS”) offering. We view software and other services mix as a key indicator of the profitability of our business, and thus we believe that this measure is useful to investors.
Software and other services mix increased by 13.5 percentage points, to 42.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase in software license revenue as compared to a decrease in product revenue. The increase in software and other services revenue is a result of increased sales of enterprise licenses for our Butterfly Blueprint software solution, increased renewals of existing software licenses, and the recognition of software and other services revenue over the term of the service period for prior-period license sales and renewals.

Description of Certain Components of Financial Data
Revenue
Revenue consists of revenue from the sale of products, such as medical devices and accessories, and the sale of software and related services, classified as software and other services revenue on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, which are SaaS subscriptions and product support and maintenance (“Support”). SaaS subscriptions include licenses for teams and individuals as well as enterprise-level subscriptions. For sales of products, revenue is recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control to the customer. SaaS subscriptions and Support are generally recognized ratably over time.
Over time, as the adoption of our devices increases through further market penetration and as practitioners in the Butterfly network continue to use our devices, we expect our annual revenue mix to shift more toward software and other services. The quarterly revenue mix may be impacted by the timing of device sales.
To date, we have invested heavily in growing adoption at large-scale healthcare systems. As we expand our healthcare system software offerings and develop relationships with larger healthcare systems, we continue to expect a higher proportion of our sales in healthcare systems compared to eCommerce.
Cost of revenue
Cost of product revenue consists of product costs, including manufacturing costs, personnel costs and benefits, inbound freight, packaging, warranty replacement costs, payment processing fees and inventory obsolescence and write-offs. We expect our cost of product revenue to fluctuate over time due to the level of units fulfilled in any given period, and we expect it to fluctuate as a percentage of product revenue over time as our focus on operational efficiencies in our supply chain may be offset by increased prices of certain inventory components.
Cost of software and other services revenue consists of personnel costs, cloud hosting costs and payment processing fees. Because the costs and associated expenses to deliver our SaaS offerings are less than the costs and associated expenses of manufacturing and selling our device, we anticipate an improvement in profitability and margin expansion over time as our revenue mix shifts increasingly towards software and other services. We plan to continue to invest resources to expand and further develop our SaaS and other service offerings.
Research and development
Research and development expenses primarily consist of personnel costs and benefits, facilities-related expenses, depreciation expenses, consulting and professional fees, fabrication services, software and other outsourcing expenses. Most of our research and development expenses are related to developing new products and services that have not reached the point of commercialization and improving our products and services that have been commercialized. Consulting expenses are related to general development activities and clinical/regulatory research. Fabrication services include certain third-party engineering costs, product testing and test boards. Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred. We expect to continue to make substantial investments in our product development, clinical and regulatory capabilities.
Sales and marketing
Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of personnel costs and benefits, third-party logistics, fulfillment and outbound shipping costs, advertising, promotional costs, conferences and events, facilities-related expenses and information technology costs. We expect to continue to make substantial investments in our sales capabilities.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel costs and benefits, insurance, patent fees, software costs, facilities-related expenses and outside services. Outside services consist of professional services, legal fees and other professional fees.
20
Other
Operating expenses classified as other are expenses which we do not consider representative of our ongoing operations. These other expenses primarily consist of employee severance and benefits costs related to our reductions in force, litigation costs, legal settlements, and other legal costs.
Results of Operations
We operate as a single reportable segment to reflect the way our CODM reviews and assesses the performance of the business. The accounting policies are described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, total revenue of $15.5 million was flat from $15.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. We saw a 15% increase in our U.S. Direct sales channel revenue, led by software and other services, as well as increases in our global health business. These increases were offset by lower revenue in our eCommerce, International, and Vet sales channels.
Product revenue decreased 19.7% to $8.8 million from $11.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Software and other services revenue increased 45.4% to $6.6 million from $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Cost of product revenue decreased by $1.8 million, or 29.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily driven by the decrease in devices sold.
Cost of software and other services revenue increased by $1.0 million, or 88.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase was primarily driven by higher amortization expenses of $0.8 million related to newly deployed internally-developed software that supports our SaaS offerings. The increase was also due to higher hosting costs and service costs in relation to the increase in software and other services revenue.

Other increased by $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase was primarily driven by employee severance and benefits costs of $3.6 million recognized in the first quarter of 2023 due to our reduction in force and an increase in legal costs of $2.6 million due to litigation and other legal matters not representative of our ongoing operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception, our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, proceeds from the Business Combination and issuances of preferred stock and convertible notes. Our primary uses of liquidity are operating expenses, working capital requirements and capital expenditures. Cash flows from operations have historically been negative as we continue to develop new products and services and expand our customer base. We expect to have negative cash flow on an annual basis, although we may have quarterly results where cash flows from operations are positive.
We expect that our existing cash, cash equivalents and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our operations and meet our working capital, capital expenditure and other liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months.
Our cash and cash equivalents balance as of March 31, 2023 was $193.8 million, consisting of cash on deposit and money market funds. Our future spending on capital resources may vary from those currently planned and will depend on various factors, including our rate of revenue growth and the timing and extent of our spending on strategic business initiatives.
Our restricted cash balance as of March 31, 2023 was $4.6 million, consisting of $4.0 million to secure a letter of credit for one of our office leases and $0.6 million restricted by our agreement with the Gates Foundation. The $4.0 million to secure a letter of credit is expected to be maintained as a security deposit throughout the duration of the lease. The restriction on the $0.6 million from our agreement with the Gates Foundation is expected to lapse as we fulfill our obligations in the agreement.
The nature of the Company’s cash requirements has not changed significantly during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Our material cash requirements include contractual obligations with third parties for office leases and inventory supply agreements. Our fixed lease payment obligations for office leases were $39.8 million as of March 31, 2023, with $3.8 million payable within the next 12 months. Our fixed purchase obligations for inventory supply agreements were $42.4 million as of March 31, 2023, and the entire balance remaining is payable within the next 12 months. We expect to pay for approximately 35% of the amount payable within the next 12 months using vendor advances.
We had no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2023.

Net cash used in operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities represents the cash receipts and disbursements related to our activities other than investing and financing activities. We expect cash provided by historical financing activities will continue to be our primary source of funds to support operating and capital expenditure needs for the foreseeable future.
Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $11.0 million, or 20.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was driven by a $12.3 million decrease in net loss adjusted for certain noncash items, partially offset by a $1.3 million increase in net working capital cash usage. The decrease in net loss adjusted for certain noncash items was primarily driven by a $10.9 million decrease in net loss and the noncash adjustments for the change in fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation expense. The increase in net working capital cash usage was primarily driven by a $2.7 million increase in cash used by accrued expenses and accounts payable and a $2.6 million increase in cash used by deferred revenue, partially offset by a $2.3 million increase in provided by accounts receivable and a $2.3 million decrease in cash used by prepaid expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities
Net cash provided by investing activities increased by $79.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the sale of all our investments in marketable securities for $76.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Net cash provided by financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $0.6 million, or 100.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to there being no exercises of stock options or warrants during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, contingent asset and liabilities and related disclosures. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, and these form the basis for making judgments about items that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
For our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
The Company did not identify any significant recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position and results of operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
We did not have any floating rate debt as of March 31, 2023. Our cash and cash equivalents are comprised primarily of bank deposits and money market accounts. The primary objective of our investments is the preservation of capital to fulfill liquidity needs. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. Due to the short-term nature and low risk profile of these investments, we do not expect cash flows to be affected to any significant degree by a sudden change in market interest rates, including an immediate change of 100 basis points, or one percentage point. Declines in interest rates, however, would reduce future investment income.
24
Inflation Risk
We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, other than its impact on the general economy. Nonetheless, to the extent our costs are impacted by general inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases or manufacturing efficiencies. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Foreign Exchange Risk
We operate our business primarily within the United States and currently execute the majority of our transactions in U.S. dollars. We have not utilized hedging strategies with respect to such foreign exchange exposure. This limited foreign currency translation risk is not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2023.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
