Description of Business |
Asensus Surgical, Inc. (the "Company") is a medical device company that is digitizing the interface between the surgeon and the patient to pioneer a new era of Performance-Guided Surgery™ by unlocking clinical intelligence for surgeons to enable consistently superior outcomes and a new standard of surgery. Based upon the foundations of digital laparoscopy and the Senhance® Surgical System, the Company is developing the LUNA™ Surgical System, a next generation robotic and instrument system as a foundation of its digital surgery solution. These systems will be powered by the Intelligent Surgical Unit™ (ISU™) to increase surgeon’s control and reduce variability of surgical outcomes. With the addition of machine vision, augmented intelligence, and deep learning capabilities throughout the surgical experience, we intend to holistically address the current clinical, cognitive and economic shortcomings that drive surgical outcomes and value-based healthcare. The Company continues market development for and commercialization of the Senhance System, which digitizes laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery, or MIS. The Senhance System is the first and only digital, multi-port laparoscopic platform designed to maintain laparoscopic MIS standards while providing digital benefits such as haptic feedback, robotic precision, comfortable ergonomics, advanced instrumentation including 3mm microlaparoscopic instruments, 5mm articulating instruments, eye-sensing camera control and fully reusable standard instruments to help maintain per-procedure costs similar to traditional laparoscopy.
| 2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results reported in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any subsequent period or for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Fiscal Year 2022 Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for all periods presented.
Going Concern
The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $
The Company will need to obtain additional financing to execute its business plan. Management's plan to obtain additional resources for the Company may include additional sales of equity, traditional financing, such as loans, entry into strategic collaborations, entry into an out-licensing arrangement or provision of additional distribution rights in some or all of its markets. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any or all of its plans. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet its existing obligations, and to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Asensus Surgical US, Inc., Asensus International, Inc., Asensus Surgical Italia S.r.l., Asensus Surgical Europe S.à r.l., Asensus Surgical Taiwan Ltd., Asensus Surgical Japan K.K., Asensus Surgical Israel Ltd., Asensus Surgical Netherlands B.V., and Asensus Surgical Canada, Inc. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Risk and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks similar to other similarly sized companies in the medical device industry. These risks include, without limitation: the historical lack of profitability; the Company’s ability to raise additional capital; its ability to successfully develop, clinically test and commercialize its products and products in development; negative impacts on the Company's operations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and other geopolitical factors; the success of its market development efforts; the timing and outcome of the regulatory review process for its products; changes in the healthcare regulatory environments of the United States, the European Union, Japan, Taiwan, and other countries in which the Company operates or intends to operate; its ability to attract and retain key management, marketing and scientific personnel; its ability to successfully prepare, file, prosecute, maintain, defend and enforce patent claims and other intellectual property rights; its ability to successfully transition from a research and development company to a marketing, sales and distribution company; competition in the market for robotic surgical devices; and its ability to identify and pursue development of additional products.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include impairment considerations for long-lived assets, fair value estimates related to contingent consideration, stock-based compensation expense, revenue recognition, short-term and long-term investments, excess and obsolete inventory reserves, inventory classification between current and non-current, measurement of lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, and deferred tax asset valuation allowances.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no new or material changes to the significant accounting policies discussed in the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Fiscal Year 2022 Form 10-K.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company has evaluated issued ASUs not yet adopted and believes the adoption of these standards will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Remaining Performance Obligations
The transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations relates to amounts allocated to products and services for which the revenue has not yet been recognized. A significant portion of this amount relates to service obligations performed under the Company's system sales contracts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. The transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations as of June 30, 2023 was $
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Deferred revenue for the periods presented was primarily related to service obligations, for which the service fees are billed up-front, generally annually. The associated deferred revenue is generally recognized ratably over the service period. The Company did not have any significant impairment losses on its contract assets (included in accounts receivable, net in the consolidated balance sheets) for the periods presented.
Revenue recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each reporting period was $

Senhance System Leasing
The Company enters into lease arrangements with certain qualified customers. Revenue related to arrangements including lease elements are allocated to lease and non-lease elements based on their relative standalone selling prices. Lease elements generally include a Senhance System, while non-lease elements generally include instruments, accessories, and services. For some lease arrangements, the customers are provided with the right to purchase the leased Senhance System at some point during and/or at the end of the lease term. In some arrangements lease payments are based on the usage of the Senhance System. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, variable lease revenue related to usage-based arrangements was not material.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value, which includes an allowance for expected credit losses. The allowance for expected credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. The allowance for expected credit losses was $

The carrying values of accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, employee retention tax credit receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued employee compensation and benefits, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and deferred revenue as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these items.
The Company’s financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of contingent consideration payable to Three Heads Investment S.r.l., related to the Company’s 2015 acquisition of the Senhance System from an assignor to Three Heads Investment S.r.l. (the “Senhance Acquisition”). Adjustments associated with the change in fair value of contingent consideration are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share |
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed giving effect to all potential dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period when the effect is dilutive. Potential dilutive common shares consist of incremental shares issuable upon exercise of stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants. No adjustments have been made to the basic weighted average outstanding common shares figures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022 as the assumed exercise of outstanding options, warrants and restricted stock units would be anti-dilutive.

| Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements. See cautionary note regarding “Forward-Looking Statements” above.
Overview
We are a medical device company that is digitizing the interface between the surgeon and patient to pioneer a new era of what we call “Performance-Guided Surgery™” by unlocking clinical intelligence for surgeons to enable consistently superior outcomes and a new standard of surgery. Based upon the foundations of digital laparoscopy and the Senhance® Surgical System, the Company is developing the LUNA™ Surgical System, a next generation robotic and instrument system as a foundation of its digital surgery solution. These systems will be powered by the Intelligent Surgical Unit™ (ISU™) to increase surgeon control and reduce surgical variability. With the addition of machine vision, augmented intelligence, and deep learning capabilities throughout the surgical experience, we intend to holistically address the current clinical, cognitive and economic shortcomings that drive surgical outcomes and value-based healthcare.
Our strategy is to focus on the realization of Performance-Guided Surgery through the continued collection of surgical data via the ISU and Asensus Cloud leveraging the Senhance System and by other means of non-robotic laparoscopic surgery, while completing the design and development of the LUNA System and its capabilities.
We continue market development for and commercialization of the Senhance System, which digitizes laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery, or MIS. The Senhance System is the first and only digital, multi-port laparoscopic platform designed to maintain laparoscopic MIS standards while providing digital benefits such as haptic feedback, robotic precision, comfortable ergonomics, advanced instrumentation including 3mm microlaparoscopic instruments, 5mm articulating instruments, eye-sensing camera control and fully-reusable standard instruments to help maintain per-procedure costs similar to traditional laparoscopy.
The Senhance System is available for sale in Europe, the United States, Japan, Taiwan, Russia (to the extent lawful), and select other countries.
| • |
The Senhance System has a CE Mark in Europe for adult and pediatric laparoscopic abdominal and pelvic surgery, as well as limited thoracic surgeries excluding cardiac and vascular surgery. |
| • |
In the United States, the Company has received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for use of the Senhance System in general laparoscopic surgical procedures and laparoscopic gynecologic surgery in a total of 31 indicated procedures, including benign and oncologic procedures, laparoscopic inguinal, hiatal and paraesophageal hernia, sleeve gastrectomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. |
| • |
In Japan, the Company has received regulatory approval and reimbursement for 124 laparoscopic procedures. |
| • |
The Senhance System received its registration certificate by the Russian medical device regulatory agency, Roszdravnadzor, in December 2020, allowing for its sale and utilization throughout the Russian Federation. |
We also enter into lease arrangements with certain qualified customers. For some lease arrangements, the customers are provided with the right to purchase the leased Senhance System during or at the end of the lease term ("Lease Buyout").
We received FDA clearance in March 2020 for our ISU. We believe it is the only FDA cleared device for machine vision technology in abdominal robotic surgery. On September 23, 2020, we announced the first surgical procedures successfully completed using the ISU. In January 2021, we received CE Mark for the ISU. In 2022, we received FDA clearance for advanced features of the ISU, and received CE Mark for such enhancements in January 2023.
In February 2020, we received CE Mark for the Senhance System and related instruments for pediatric use indications in CE Mark territories. We received FDA clearance in March 2023 for the pediatric indication for the Senhance System. The expanded indication allows accessibility to more surgeons and patients, as well as expanding our potential market to include pediatric hospitals. We anticipate the robotic precision provided by the Senhance System, coupled with the already available 3mm instruments and haptic feedback will prove to be an effective tool in surgery with smaller patients.
In 2020, we obtained regulatory clearance for the Senhance ultrasonic system in both Taiwan and Japan. We also received clearance for the ISU in Japan.
On July 28, 2021, the Company announced that it received FDA clearance for 5mm diameter articulating instruments, offering better access to difficult-to-reach areas of the anatomy by providing two additional degrees of freedom. These instruments have previously received CE Mark for use in the EU.
On February 21, 2023, we held an investor day to describe our focus on developing a next generation robotic system we call the LUNA Surgical System and the ongoing developments in our Performance-Guided Surgery platform. Performance-Guided Surgery is comprised of three strategic pillars:
| ● |
enhanced robotic precision and manipulation capabilities, via the Senhance System today and, when developed and approved, the LUNA System; |
| ● |
expanded intra-operative augmented intelligence clinical decision support guidance for the surgeon via the ISU; and |
| ● |
integration of cloud and big data to harness best practices across pre-, intra- and post-operative settings, and make it available to surgeons around the world via the Asensus Cloud. |
The Company believes that future outcomes of minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery will be enhanced through its combination of more advanced tools and robotic functionality, which are designed to: (i) empower surgeons with improved precision, dexterity and visualization; (ii) improve patient satisfaction and enable a desirable post-operative recovery; and (iii) provide a cost-effective robotic system, as compared to existing alternatives today, for a wide range of clinical indications.
From our inception, we devoted a substantial percentage of our resources to research and development and start-up activities, consisting primarily of product design and development, clinical studies, manufacturing, recruiting qualified personnel and raising capital. We are a data driven company that expects to continue to invest in research and development, market development, and generation and analysis of clinical evidence as we implement our strategy. As a result, we will need to generate significant revenue in order to achieve profitability. We expect to continue to invest in research and development and market development as we implement our strategy.
Since inception, we have incurred substantial losses from operations and had negative cash flows from operating activities. As of June 30, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $903.8 million, and there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We operate in one business segment.

Lease revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $0.5 million compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The $0.2 million increase primarily relates to an increase in the number of lease placements.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists of contract manufacturing, materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead incurred internally to produce the products. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of revenue. We expense all inventory excess and obsolescence provisions as cost of revenue. The manufacturing overhead costs include the cost of quality assurance, material procurement, inventory control, facilities, equipment depreciation and operations supervision and management.
Product cost for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $1.6 million as compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The $0.7 million increase primarily consists of (i) $0.3 million increase in inventory costs as a result of inventory write-downs, (ii) $0.2 million increase in employee compensation costs due to current and new business initiatives, and (iii) $0.2 million increase in expensed manufacturing overhead costs due to lower than normal production level during the period.
Service cost for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $0.5 million as compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The $0.1 million decrease relates to a decrease in materials costs. Cost of revenue exceeds revenue primarily due to part replacements under maintenance plans, which are expensed when incurred, along with salaries for the field service teams.
Lease cost for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $0.9 million as compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The $0.1 million increase primarily relates to an increase in the number of lease placements.
Research and Development
Research and development, or R&D, expenses primarily consist of engineering, product development and regulatory expenses incurred in the design, development, testing and enhancement of our products and legal services associated with our efforts to obtain and maintain broad protection for the intellectual property related to our products. In future periods, we expect R&D expenses to continue to substantially increase as we invest in the LUNA System and our digital laparoscopy platform. R&D expenses are expensed as incurred.
R&D expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased 23% to $9.0 million as compared to $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as we continue to invest in basic research, clinical evaluations, and product development in the areas of robotics and digital technologies supporting the LUNA System, the ISU and our digital laparoscopy platform. All activities are in the effort of building the future for Performance-Guided Surgery. The $1.7 million increase primarily relates to increased expenses related to contract engineering services, consulting, and other outside services of $0.8 million. The change was also driven by increased personnel costs of $0.5 million, primarily as a result of additional headcount, and increased supplies costs of $0.4 million.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses include costs for sales and marketing and clinical support personnel, travel, demonstration product, market development, physician training, tradeshows, marketing clinical evaluations and consulting expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased 22% to $4.4 million compared to $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The $0.8 million increase was primarily related to increased employee-related costs of $0.7 million due to an increase in headcount, and increased travel costs of $0.1 million.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist of personnel costs related to the executive, finance, legal, IT and human resource functions, as well as professional service fees, legal fees, accounting fees, insurance costs, and general corporate expenses.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 remained relatively constant at approximately $5.1 million and $5.0 million, respectively.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $0.1 million compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The $2.4 million decrease is primarily related to the reduction in the amortizable intangible assets base as two developed technologies intangible assets were fully amortized during the year ended December 31, 2022.
Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration
The change in fair value of contingent consideration in connection with the Senhance Acquisition was a $0.2 million increase for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to a $0.6 million decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to changes in market assumptions and the discount rate utilized.
Impairment of Property and Equipment
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $0.4 million to reduce the carrying value of property and equipment to its estimated fair value. The property and equipment is associated with operating leases that did not elect to renew their agreements. No impairment charge was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Other Income (Expense), net
Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $0.2 million income compared to approximately $33,000 income for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The change primarily related to changes in interest expense, and amortization and accretion income related to investments.
Income Tax Expense
The Company recorded $12,000 income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $85,000 income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Income tax expense consisted primarily of current income taxes related to profitable foreign jurisdictions in Japan, Israel, and the Netherlands.
Results of Operations – Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

In the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our revenue consisted of ongoing Senhance Systems’ leasing payments, sales of instruments and accessories, and services revenue for Senhance Systems sold in Europe, Asia, and the U.S. in prior periods.
Product revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 remained constant at approximately $0.6 million.
Service revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $0.5 million compared to $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The $0.2 million decrease was due to a decrease in the number of Senhance Systems under service contracts.
Lease revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $1.0 compared to $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The $0.3 million increase was the result of additional lease placements in the second six months of 2022.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists of contract manufacturing, materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead incurred internally to produce the products. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of revenue. We expense all inventory excess and obsolescence provisions as cost of revenue. The manufacturing overhead costs include the cost of quality assurance, material procurement, inventory control, facilities, equipment depreciation and operations supervision and management.
Product cost for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $2.8 million as compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The $1.5 million increase primarily consists of (i) $0.7 million increase in inventory costs as a result of inventory write-downs, (ii) $0.4 million increase in employee compensation costs due to current and new business initiatives, and (iii) $0.4 million increase in expensed manufacturing overhead costs due to lower than normal production level during the period.
Service cost for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $1.3 million as compared to $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The $0.2 million increase primarily relates to an increase in material costs. Cost of revenue exceeds revenue primarily due to part replacements under maintenance plans, which are expensed when incurred, along with salaries for the field service teams.
Lease cost for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 increased to $1.9 million as compared to $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The $0.1 million increase primarily relates to an increase in the number of lease placements.
Research and Development
R&D expenses primarily consist of engineering, product development and regulatory expenses incurred in the design, development, testing and enhancement of our products and legal services associated with our efforts to obtain and maintain broad protection for the intellectual property related to our products. In future periods, we expect R&D expenses to continue to substantially increase as we invest in the LUNA System and our digital laparoscopy platform. R&D expenses are expensed as incurred.
R&D expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased 39% to $19.1 million as compared to $13.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as we continue to invest in basic research, clinical evaluations, and product development in the areas of robotics and digital technologies supporting the LUNA System and our digital laparoscopy platform. All activities are in the effort of building the future for Performance-Guided Surgery. The $5.4 million increase primarily relates to increased contract engineering services, consulting, and other outside services of $3.3 million. The change was also driven by increased personnel costs of $1.1 million, driven by additional headcount, and increased supplies costs of $1.0 million.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses include costs for sales, marketing and clinical personnel, travel, demonstration product, market development, physician training, tradeshows, marketing clinical studies and consulting expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased 23% to $9.0 million compared to $7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The $1.7 million increase was primarily related to increased employee-related costs of $1.4 million due to an increase in headcount, increased travel costs of $0.2 million, and increased supplies expenses of $0.1 million.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist of personnel costs related to the executive, finance, legal, IT and human resource functions, as well as professional service fees, legal fees, accounting fees, insurance costs, and general corporate expenses.
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased slightly to $10.6 million compared to $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased to $0.2 million compared to $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The $5.0 million decrease is primarily related to two developed technologies intangible assets that fully amortized during the year ended December 31, 2022.
Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration
The change in fair value of contingent consideration in connection with the Senhance Acquisition was a $0.3 million increase for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to a $0.8 million decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to changes in market assumptions and the discount rate utilized.
Impairment of Property and Equipment
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $0.4 million to reduce the carrying value of property and equipment to its estimated fair value. The property and equipment is associated with operating leases that did not elect to renew their agreements. No impairment charge was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Other Income (Expense), net
Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased by $0.5 million to $0.4 million income compared to $0.1 million expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The change was primarily related to changes in interest expense and amortization and accretion income on investments.
Income Tax Expense
The Company recognized $0.1 million income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $0.2 million income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Income tax expense consisted primarily of current income taxes related to profitable foreign jurisdictions in Japan, Israel, and the Netherlands.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Going Concern
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $903.8 million and working capital of $44.3 million as of June 30, 2023. The Company has not established sufficient revenues to cover its operating costs and will require additional capital to continue as a going concern. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, excluding restricted cash, of approximately $40.0 million. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, together with cash received from product, service, and lease sales will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs through late second quarter of 2024.
The Company will need to obtain additional financing to proceed with its business plan. Management's plan to obtain additional resources for the Company may include additional sales of equity, traditional financing, such as loans, entry into a strategic collaboration, entry into an out-licensing arrangement or provision of additional distribution rights in some or all of our markets. The Company is also seeking to reduce its costs while maintaining the implementation of its strategic plan. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any or all of its plans. If sufficient funds are not received on a timely basis, the Company would then need to reduce costs further and/or pursue a plan to license or sell its assets, seek to be acquired by another entity, cease operations and/or seek bankruptcy protection. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.
The Company is subject to risks similar to other similarly sized companies in the medical device industry. These risks include, without limitation: the historical lack of profitability; the Company’s ability to grow its placements and increase utilization of the Senhance System by customers, the Company’s ability to raise additional capital; its ability to successfully develop, clinically test and commercialize its products and products in development; negative impacts on the Company's operations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and other geopolitical factors; the success of its market development efforts; the timing and outcome of the regulatory review process for its products; changes in the healthcare regulatory environments of the United States, the European Union, Japan, Taiwan and other countries in which the Company operates or intends to operate; its ability to attract and retain key management, marketing and scientific personnel; its ability to successfully prepare, file, prosecute, maintain, defend and enforce patent claims and other intellectual property rights; its ability to successfully transition from a research and development company to a marketing, sales and distribution concern; competition in the market for robotic and digital surgical devices; and its ability to identify and pursue development of additional products.
Sources of Liquidity
Our principal sources of liquidity to date have been cash proceeds from issuance of common stock pursuant to public offerings, incurrence of debt and proceeds from sales and maturities of investments.
Our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were are follows:

Operating Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in operating activities of $35.2 million consisted of a net loss of $42.9 million, changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.4 million, and non-cash items of $6.3 million. The non-cash items primarily consisted of $3.9 million of stock-based compensation expense, $1.9 million of depreciation and amortization expense, $0.3 million of change in fair value of contingent consideration, and $0.5 million change in inventory reserve, partially offset by $0.3 million in amortization of discounts and premiums on investments. The increase in cash from changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily relates to a $1.0 million increase in accounts payable, a $1.6 million decrease in accounts receivable, a $0.4 million decrease in prepaid expenses and a $0.3 million decrease in other current and long-term assets, , partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in accrued employee compensation and benefits and a $1.2 million increase in inventory.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities of $30.2 million consisted of a net loss of $38.7 million, changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2.6 million, offset by non-cash items of $11.1 million. The non-cash items primarily consisted of $5.2 million of amortization of intangible assets, $4.3 million of stock-based compensation expense, $1.7 million of depreciation, $0.4 million of net amortization of discounts and premiums on investments, $0.4 million in impairment of property and equipment, $0.2 million deferred tax expense, offset by $0.6 million change in inventory reserves and $0.8 million of change in fair value of contingent consideration. The decrease in cash from changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily relates to a $1.9 million increase in inventory net of transfers to property and equipment, $1.2 million increase in other current and long-term assets, $0.3 million decrease in accrued expenses, $0.3 million decrease in operating lease liabilities, offset by a $0.5 million increase in accounts payable, $0.4 million decrease in operating lease right-of-use assets, and a $0.2 million decrease in prepaid expenses.
Investing Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash provided by investing activities was $36.3 million. This amount consists of $48.7 million of proceeds from maturities of available-for-sale investments, offset by $12.3 million of purchases of available-for-sale investments and $0.2 million purchases of property and equipment.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash provided by investing activities was $23.2 million. This amount consists of $41.4 million of proceeds from maturities of available-for-sale investments, offset by $17.8 million of purchases of available-for-sale investments and $0.4 million purchases of property and equipment.
Financing Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was $0.3 million, primarily related to taxes paid for the net share settlement of vesting of restricted stock units, partially offset by proceeds from issuance of common stock of $0.2 million.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was $0.3 million, related to taxes paid for the net share settlement of vesting of restricted stock units.
Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements
We intend to spend substantial amounts on research and development activities, including product development, regulatory and compliance, and clinical studies in support of the development of the LUNA System and our digital solutions platform. We intend to use financing opportunities strategically to continue to strengthen our financial position.
Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries totaled $3.1 million as of June 30, 2023, including restricted cash. We do not intend or currently foresee a need to repatriate cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries. If these funds are needed in the United States, we believe that the potential U.S. tax impact to repatriate these funds would be immaterial.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations set forth above under the headings “Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing in this Form 10-Q and in the Fiscal Year 2022 Form 10-K. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our critical accounting estimates, including identifiable intangible assets, contingent consideration, stock-based compensation, inventory, revenue recognition and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. A more detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies can be found in Note 2 in the Notes to the condensed consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. There have been no new or material changes to the critical accounting estimates discussed in our Fiscal Year 2022 Form 10-K, that are of significance, or potential significance, to us.
While all accounting policies impact the consolidated financial statements, certain policies may be viewed as critical. Critical accounting estimates are those that are both most important to the portrayal of financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most subjective or complex judgments and estimates. Our management believes the policies that fall within this category are the estimates on accounting for identifiable intangible assets, contingent consideration, stock-based compensation, inventory, revenue recognition and income taxes.
| Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
We are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Operations outside of the United States accounted for 84% and 81% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are concentrated principally in Europe. We translate the revenue and expenses of our foreign operations using average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The effect of a 10% change in the average foreign currency exchange rates among the U.S. dollar versus the Euro for the six months ended June 30, 2023, would result in revenue changing by $0.2 million. This change would not be material to our cash flows and our results of operations.
| Controls and Procedures |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2023. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance 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 and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, described below.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Other than the remediation efforts described below, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the year ended December 31, 2022, management identified a deficiency constituting a material weakness related to the design and implementation of information technology general controls (“ITGCs”) related to the implementation of our new global enterprise resource planning system (“ERP”) utilized in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Specifically, we did not design and maintain user access controls to adequately restrict user and privileged access to the financial application and data to appropriate Company personnel.
The material weakness identified above did not result in any identified misstatements to our consolidated interim financial statements, and our management has concluded that the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Remediation Efforts
We have commenced measures to remediate the identified material weakness. Management has been and will continue designing and implementing an improved process for requesting, authorizing, and reviewing user access to key systems which impact our financial reporting, including identifying access to roles where manual business process controls may be required. This implementation will include the addition of detection controls which will include the review of user access and activity logs related to systems that were accessed. We will also enhance the training of our personnel regarding their roles and responsibilities within the information technology general controls objectives and activities. The material weakness will not be considered remediated until management designs and implements effective controls that operate for a sufficient period of time for management to conclude, through testing, that the controls are operating effectively. The material weakness is not considered remediated as of June 30, 2023 as remediation efforts are ongoing.

| Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] |
Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results reported in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any subsequent period or for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Fiscal Year 2022 Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for all periods presented.
Going Concern The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $903.8 million and working capital of $44.3 million as of June 30, 2023. The Company has not established sufficient sales revenues to cover its operating costs and requires additional capital to proceed with its operating plan. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable.
The Company will need to obtain additional financing to execute its business plan. Management's plan to obtain additional resources for the Company may include additional sales of equity, traditional financing, such as loans, entry into strategic collaborations, entry into an out-licensing arrangement or provision of additional distribution rights in some or all of its markets. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any or all of its plans. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet its existing obligations, and to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.
Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Asensus Surgical US, Inc., Asensus International, Inc., Asensus Surgical Italia S.r.l., Asensus Surgical Europe S.à r.l., Asensus Surgical Taiwan Ltd., Asensus Surgical Japan K.K., Asensus Surgical Israel Ltd., Asensus Surgical Netherlands B.V., and Asensus Surgical Canada, Inc. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Risk and Uncertainties The Company is subject to risks similar to other similarly sized companies in the medical device industry. These risks include, without limitation: the historical lack of profitability; the Company’s ability to raise additional capital; its ability to successfully develop, clinically test and commercialize its products and products in development; negative impacts on the Company's operations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and other geopolitical factors; the success of its market development efforts; the timing and outcome of the regulatory review process for its products; changes in the healthcare regulatory environments of the United States, the European Union, Japan, Taiwan, and other countries in which the Company operates or intends to operate; its ability to attract and retain key management, marketing and scientific personnel; its ability to successfully prepare, file, prosecute, maintain, defend and enforce patent claims and other intellectual property rights; its ability to successfully transition from a research and development company to a marketing, sales and distribution company; competition in the market for robotic surgical devices; and its ability to identify and pursue development of additional products.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include impairment considerations for long-lived assets, fair value estimates related to contingent consideration, stock-based compensation expense, revenue recognition, short-term and long-term investments, excess and obsolete inventory reserves, inventory classification between current and non-current, measurement of lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, and deferred tax asset valuation allowances.
Significant Accounting Policies There have been no new or material changes to the significant accounting policies discussed in the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Fiscal Year 2022 Form 10-K.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards The Company has evaluated issued ASUs not yet adopted and believes the adoption of these standards will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. |

| Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block] |
The following table presents revenue disaggregated by type and geography:
Remaining Performance Obligations The transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations relates to amounts allocated to products and services for which the revenue has not yet been recognized. A significant portion of this amount relates to service obligations performed under the Company's system sales contracts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. The transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations as of June 30, 2023 was $0.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over to years.
Contract Assets and Liabilities Deferred revenue for the periods presented was primarily related to service obligations, for which the service fees are billed up-front, generally annually. The associated deferred revenue is generally recognized ratably over the service period. The Company did not have any significant impairment losses on its contract assets (included in accounts receivable, net in the consolidated balance sheets) for the periods presented.
Revenue recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each reporting period was $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Revenue recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each reporting period was $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively.
The following information summarizes the Company’s contract assets and liabilities:
Senhance System Leasing The Company enters into lease arrangements with certain qualified customers. Revenue related to arrangements including lease elements are allocated to lease and non-lease elements based on their relative standalone selling prices. Lease elements generally include a Senhance System, while non-lease elements generally include instruments, accessories, and services. For some lease arrangements, the customers are provided with the right to purchase the leased Senhance System at some point during and/or at the end of the lease term. In some arrangements lease payments are based on the usage of the Senhance System. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, variable lease revenue related to usage-based arrangements was not material.
Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value, which includes an allowance for expected credit losses. The allowance for expected credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. The allowance for expected credit losses was $1.6 million and $1.6 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company recorded immaterial amounts for expected credit losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
The Company had two customers that accounted for 43% and 13%, respectively, of the Company’s net accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023. The Company had one customer that accounted for 69% of the Company’s net accounts receivable as of December 31, 2022.

| Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] |
The following are categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1); significant other observable inputs (Level 2); and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):
The carrying values of accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, employee retention tax credit receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued employee compensation and benefits, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and deferred revenue as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these items.

| Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] |
Income taxes have been accounted for using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. The Company computes its interim provision for income taxes by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate method. The Company estimates an annual effective tax rate of (0.3)% for the year ending December 31, 2023. This rate does not include the impact of any discrete items. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was 0.1% and (0.4)%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was (0.2)% and (0.4)%, respectively.
The Company incurred losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and is forecasting additional losses through the year, resulting in an estimated net loss for both financial statement and tax purposes for the year ending December 31, 2023. Due to the Company’s history of losses, there is not sufficient evidence to record a net deferred tax asset associated with the U.S., Luxembourg, Swiss, Italian, Taiwanese, and Canadian operations. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been recorded related to the net deferred tax assets in those jurisdictions.
The total tax expense during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, was a benefit of approximately $12,000 and an expense of $85,000, respectively. The total tax expense during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, was approximately $79,000 and $169,000, respectively.
At June 30, 2023 the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits that would affect the Company’s effective tax rate.
The FASB Staff Q&A, Topic 740, No. 5, Accounting for Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”), states that an entity can make an accounting policy election to either recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or to provide for the tax expense related to GILTI in the year the tax is incurred as a period expense only. The Company has elected to account for GILTI as a period expense in the year the tax is incurred. The Company does not expect a GILTI inclusion for 2023; no GILTI tax has been recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022, respectively.

Incentive Compensation Plan Information
On June 6, 2023, at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company’s stockholders voted to approve an amendment and restatement of the Company’s Incentive Compensation Plan (“the Plan”) to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan by 22,000,000 shares. As a result of this amendment, shares authorized for issuance under the Plan increased to 54,072,307 shares.
Stock Options
The following table summarizes options outstanding as of June 30, 2023, as well as activity, including grants to non-employees, for the six months ended June 30, 2023:
The fair value of options granted were estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model based on the assumptions in the table below:
Restricted Stock Units
The following table summarizes information about restricted stock units outstanding as of June 30, 2023, as well as activity, including performance restricted stock units, for the six months ended June 30, 2023:
Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units
In 2023 and 2022, the Company granted performance-based restricted stock units. In particular, the number of shares earnable under the 2023 and 2022 awards is based on achieving certain operational targets by December 31, 2023 and October 1, 2023, respectively. These operational targets have been achieved for the awards granted in 2022, therefore the 2022 performance-based restricted stock units are fully earned and remain subject to three-year time-based vesting requirements. The Company has not yet achieved the operational targets required for the awards granted in 2023.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
The following table summarizes non-cash stock-based compensation expense by award type for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had future stock-based compensation expense of approximately $2.5 million related to unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over an estimated weighted-average period of approximately 1.9 years. As of June 30, 2023, the unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units was approximately $6.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.6 years. |

| Earnings Per Share [Text Block] |
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed giving effect to all potential dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period when the effect is dilutive. Potential dilutive common shares consist of incremental shares issuable upon exercise of stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants. No adjustments have been made to the basic weighted average outstanding common shares figures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022 as the assumed exercise of outstanding options, warrants and restricted stock units would be anti-dilutive.
Potential common shares not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share are as follows:

| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results reported in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any subsequent period or for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Fiscal Year 2022 Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for all periods presented.
|
| Substantial Doubt about Going Concern [Policy Text Block] | Going Concern The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $903.8 million and working capital of $44.3 million as of June 30, 2023. The Company has not established sufficient sales revenues to cover its operating costs and requires additional capital to proceed with its operating plan. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable.
The Company will need to obtain additional financing to execute its business plan. Management's plan to obtain additional resources for the Company may include additional sales of equity, traditional financing, such as loans, entry into strategic collaborations, entry into an out-licensing arrangement or provision of additional distribution rights in some or all of its markets. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any or all of its plans. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet its existing obligations, and to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.
|
| Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Asensus Surgical US, Inc., Asensus International, Inc., Asensus Surgical Italia S.r.l., Asensus Surgical Europe S.à r.l., Asensus Surgical Taiwan Ltd., Asensus Surgical Japan K.K., Asensus Surgical Israel Ltd., Asensus Surgical Netherlands B.V., and Asensus Surgical Canada, Inc. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
|
| Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include impairment considerations for long-lived assets, fair value estimates related to contingent consideration, stock-based compensation expense, revenue recognition, short-term and long-term investments, excess and obsolete inventory reserves, inventory classification between current and non-current, measurement of lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, and deferred tax asset valuation allowances.
|
| New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards The Company has evaluated issued ASUs not yet adopted and believes the adoption of these standards will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. |
