Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

SOCKET MOBILE, INC.

NOTE 1 —Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Socket Mobile, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

NOTE 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Cash Equivalents and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity date of 90 days or less at date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents consisted of amounts held in demand deposit accounts in banks. The Company has never experienced any losses in such accounts.

The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and debt approximate fair value due to the relatively short period of time to maturity.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

With the adoption of ASC 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” in 2017, the Company recognizes revenue on sales to distributors when shipping of product is completed and title transfers to distributor, less a reserve for estimated product returns (sales and cost of sales). The reserves are based on estimates of future returns calculated from actual return history, primarily from stock rotations, plus knowledge of pending returns outside of the norm. On June 30, 2026, the deferred revenue and deferred cost on shipments to distributors were$303,940 and$110,758, respectively, compared to$335,874 and$122,480, respectively, on December 31, 2025.

The Company also earns revenue from its SocketCare extended warranty program, which provides extended warranty and accidental breakage coverage for selected products. Customers can purchase a SocketCare warranty at the time of product purchase, which provides coverage for a three-year or a five-year term. Revenues from SocketCare services are recognized ratably over the life of the extended warranty contract. Total SocketCare revenue was approximately$6,200 and$10,300 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to$3,800 and$8,100 for the same periods in 2025. The amount of unrecognized SocketCare service revenue is classified as deferred service revenue and presented on the Company’s balance sheet in its short- and long-term components. On June 30, 2026, the balance of unrecognized SocketCare service revenue was$102,653, compared to$28,258 as of December 31, 2025.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margins

Cost of sales primarily consists of the costs to manufacture our products, including the costs of materials, contract manufacturing, shipping costs, personnel and related expenses including stock-based compensation, equipment and facility expenses, warranty costs and inventory excess and obsolete provisions.

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

All Notes bear interest at 10% per annum, payable quarterly in cash. Each series is convertible at the holder’s option into shares of the Company’s common stock at fixed conversion prices established at issuance. Beginning one year after issuance, holders may require the Company to repay principal and accrued interest. Failure to pay principal or interest when due (subject to a five-day grace period) constitutes an event of default.

Proceeds from the issuances were used for general working capital purposes.

In connection with certain issuances involving related parties, the transactions were reviewed and approved in accordance with the Company’s related-party transaction policies. The Company filed and obtained effectiveness of registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the resale of shares issuable upon conversion of the applicable Notes.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk include cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company invests its cash in demand deposit accounts in banks and the Company has not experienced losses on the investments. The Company’s trade accounts receivables are primarily with distributors. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition, but the Company generally requires no collateral. Reserves are maintained for potential credit losses, and such losses have been within management’s expectations. Customers who accounted for at least 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balances on June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were as follows:

June 30,December 31,
20262025
BlueStar, Inc.41%43%
ScanSource, Inc.33%19%
EET UK Distribution Ltd.*11%

Concentration of Suppliers

Several of the Company’s component parts are produced by a sole or limited number of suppliers. Shortages could occur in these essential materials due to increased demand, or due to an interruption of supply. Suppliers may choose to restrict credit terms or require advance payments causing delays in the procurement of essential materials. The Company’s inability to procure certain materials could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the top three suppliers accounted for 65% and 48% of inventory purchases. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025,24% and 33%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts payable balances were concentrated with top two suppliers.

NOTE 8 — Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes the compensation cost in the financial statements for all stock-based awards to employees, including grants of stock options and restricted stock, based on the fair value of the awards as of the date that the awards are issued. Compensation cost for stock-based awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

The fair values of stock options are generally determined using a binomial lattice valuation model which incorporates assumptions about expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, and expected life. Ther Company granted 232,045 stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared tono stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Restricted stock shares are issued to employees and consultants and are held in escrow by the Company until they vest, subject to the recipient remaining a service provider on each applicable vesting date. If a recipient's service or employment terminates before vesting, the unvested shares are forfeited and revert to the Company. Restricted stock may also be issued to directors, whose awards typically vest immediately. The shares are registered upon grant, allowing the holders to vote at the annual stockholders' meeting. Restricted stock is granted at no cost to the recipient, and the related compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting period.

Index

During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company granted 76,286 and 643,793 shares of restricted stock, respectively. As of June 30, 2026,737,194 shares of restricted stock were outstanding. Because the shares are subject to restrictions on sale or transfer until they vest, the Company does not include unvested restricted stock in shares issued and outstanding. During the six months ended June 30, 2026,374,855 shares of restricted stock vested and were issued to employees and directors. The fair value of the vested shares is subject to applicable tax withholding.

Total stock-based compensation expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were$179,929 and$349,983, respectively, compared to expenses of$230,690 and$301,315 in the corresponding periods a year ago.
