(Unaudited)
1. NATURE OF THE BUSINESS AND PRESENTATION
Overview
Spectral AI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) is an Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) company focused on predictive medical diagnostics. Our DeepView™ System uses proprietary AI algorithms to distinguish between fully damaged, partially damaged and healthy human tissue characteristics invisible to the naked eye, at the initial time point of wound presentation. The DeepView System delivers a binary prediction on the wound’s capacity to heal or not-heal by a specified time point in the future. Our DeepView System’s output is specifically engineered to assist the physician in making a more accurate, timely and informed decision regarding the treatment of the patient’s wounds. Our focus is on our burn indication.
In February 2024, our DeepView System, comprised of the multispectral imaging (“MSI”) component integrated with the predictive AI-Burn®software component, received United Kingdom Conformity Assessed (“UKCA”) marking for use in the United Kingdom for burn indications. In June 2025, we filed a De Novo application for the DeepView System with the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) so that it may achieve Class II medical device designation. Following our anticipated receipt of additional necessary market authorization, our business will have two primary revenue streams, a SaaS (software as a service) offering aligned with SaMD (software as a medical device) regulatory framework, and the imaging device component. The SaaS component will feature a software licensing fee that includes maintenance, image hosting, and access to algorithmic updates. The proprietary imaging device acquires the images for the AI algorithms and is a universal platform to house multiple clinical indications including burn wound healing analysis and other tissue indication assessments. Pricing for these components will be evaluated and strategically set per country and site-of-service for heightened customer adoption.
The DeepView System is comprised of the DeepView-AI Burns® software and the DeepView SnapShot® imaging device, and it is intended to be used as an adjunctive tool to aid health care providers in the assessment of burn wound healing potential by differentiating non-healing from healing tissue within an image. The MSI imaging technology within the DeepView SnapShot imaging device consists of patented proprietary multi-spectral optics and sensors, capturing injured tissue images ranging from near ultraviolet light, through the human visible wavelengths, and into the near infrared range. The broad wavelength ranges go beyond what the human eyes can see and capture what medical professionals cannot observe with their naked eyes. This wide range of wavelength images contains wound tissue physiology and captures the viability of various biomarkers within the skin and from the injured tissue spectral signatures. The imaging technology extracts appropriate clinical data and processes the image data to provide the injured tissue spectral signatures to the DeepView AI Burns software AI model and algorithms. The AI algorithm classifies various severities of the injuries as (i) fully damaged (non-healing), (ii) partially damaged or (iii) healthy tissue (healing) and displays a comparison of the original image next to an image with a color overlay of the non-healing portions of the wound. The image acquisition takes 0.2 seconds, and all image processing and AI model classification takes approximately 20 to 25 seconds. Our DeepView System’s proprietary optics can extract millions of pixels of data or AI model features from each group of raw images. This information is then used to advance algorithm optimization, which is trained and tested against a proprietary and clinically validated database of over 340 billion pixels of image data.
The Company has not generated any product revenue to date. The Company currently generates revenue from contract development and research services by providing such services to governmental agencies, primarily to the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (“BARDA”) and under a contract with the Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (“MTEC”).
We have received substantial support from the U.S. government for our DeepView System’s application for burn wounds from BARDA, which is part of the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response in the United States, established to aid in securing the United States from chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats, as well as from pandemic influenza and emerging infectious diseases. We have also received funding from the National Science Foundation, the National Institute of Health and the Defense Health Agency (“DHA”), an agency within the Department of Defense. On September 27, 2023, the Company executed a new contract with BARDA, providing the Company with additional funding of up to approximately $150.0 million. This includes an initial award of approximately $54.9 million to support the clinical validation study and the distribution of up to 30 DeepView Systems in various emergency rooms and burn centers to support the study. The funding also supported the Company’s FDA De Novo submission of our DeepView AI – Burn software, which was completed on June 30, 2025. The contract also includes options, similar to our prior BARDA contracts, with an additional total value of approximately $95.1 million which can be exercised for additional product development, procurement and the expanded deployment of DeepView Systems at emergency rooms, trauma and burn centers. These deployments will enable the Company to conduct health economic and outcome research studies to support the broader clinical adoption of the DeepView System.
Subject to our receipt of the necessary regulatory market authorizations, we intend to initially sell the DeepView System throughout the United States and the UK for its burn indication. Given our receipt of the UKCA authorization for our burn indication we anticipate initial sales in UK to begin in 2025. The sales channel for our burn indication will be supported by existing and future governmental contracts, primarily from agencies such as BARDA and the DHA. In the United States, there are approximately 100 burn centers, 700 trauma centers and 5,400 federal and community hospitals with emergency rooms where the burn patients are most likely to present upon injury. The DeepView System provides a quick clinical diagnostic decision tool for emergency room clinicians. It can be used to quickly assess the healing potential for burn wounds so decisions regarding whether patients need routine care or should be transferred to trauma centers or burn centers for advanced care and accurate surgical planning can be made in a much more timely fashion. The DeepView System provides an advanced diagnostic assessment of the non-healing areas of a burn in emergency rooms, trauma centers and burn centers. For the DeepView System’s burn application and following receipt of any future contract awards, we plan to partner with the U.S. governmental agency sponsors to implement the distribution of our DeepView System throughout the United States into key regions to support the United States’ mass casualty countermeasure directives, with the goal of making our country better prepared for mass casualty events and saving scarce healthcare resources.
Business Combination
Spectral AI, Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as Rosecliff Acquisition Corp I (“Spectral AI” or the “Company”) was formed as a blank check company on November 17, 2020.
On September 11, 2023, the Company consummated a business combination (the “Business Combination”), pursuant to the business combination agreement dated April 11, 2023 (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, Ghost Merger Sub I, a Delaware Corporation, Ghost Merger Sub II, a Delaware corporation and Spectral MD Holdings, Ltd., a Delaware corporation incorporated on March 9, 2009 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas (“Legacy Spectral”). Upon closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), the Company changed its name from Rosecliff Acquisition Corp I to Spectral AI, Inc.
In conjunction with the Business Combination, the Company cancelled the redeemable warrants at the Closing that it previously issued to Rosecliff Acquisition Sponsor I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company in connection with the Company’s initial public offering on February 17, 2021, but the 8,433,333 redeemable warrants that were previously issued to the public (the “Public Warrants”) remain outstanding.
Revision of Prior Period Financial Information
During the fourth quarter of 2023, management deferred certain costs associated with a stock offering which was completed during 2024, at which time the costs were recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Management subsequently determined that these costs should have been expensed during the fourth quarter of 2023. Accordingly, the Company has revised its consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity deficit) as of December 31, 2024, and 2023 to increase both the accumulated deficit and additional paid-in capital by $283,000.
Additionally, during the third quarter of 2023 in conjunction with the accounting for the Business Combination, the Company recognized an income tax receivable asset which should not have been recorded due to uncertainties about collectability. This receivable was written off during the fourth quarter of 2024 through income tax expense. Accordingly, the Company has revised its consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ deficit to reduce both the accumulated deficit and additional paid-in capital by $157,000 as of December 31, 2024 and to reduce additional paid in capital by $157,000 as of December 31, 2023. The Company has revised its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2024 to reduce income tax provision and net loss by $157,000 and to revise the net loss per share accordingly as well.
The net effect of the two corrections described above is a $126,000 increase to both the accumulated deficit and additional paid-in capital as of December 31, 2024, and 2023. The Company has determined that the errors were immaterial to all impacted periods and has corrected the impacted periods as an immaterial correction of an error.
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) or an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”).
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter, the year ending December 31, 2025, or any other period.
Except as described elsewhere in Note 2 under the heading “Recently accounting pronouncements,” there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Spectral MD Holdings LLC, Spectral MD Inc., Spectral MD UK Limited (“Spectral MD UK”), Spectral DeepView Limited, and Spectral IP, Inc. (“Spectral IP”) and 1001304798 Ontario, Inc., a newly-formed Canadian company for the purpose of retaining a Canadian employee whom was ultimately not hired. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the Company’s balance sheets and the amounts of expenses reported for each of the periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, revenue recognition, warrant liabilities, fair value of certain debt, stock-based compensation expense, stock issued for transaction costs, the net realizable value of inventory, right-of-use assets, and income tax valuation allowances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Segments
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate and discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Chairman of the Board in conjunction with the Company’s executive management team manages the Company’s operations on an aggregate basis for the purpose of allocating resources.
The Company hasone operating segment. The accounting policies of the Company’s single operating and reportable segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.
The Company’s method for measuring profitability includes net loss, which the chief operating decision-maker uses to assess performance and make decisions for resource allocation, consistent with the measurement principals for net income(loss) as reported on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. The significant expenses regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision-maker are consistent with those reported on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations as well as research and development expenses which are disclosed in the footnotes to these financial statements. Certain expenses are reviewed for purposes of assessing operating activities and resource allocation for the Company. The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as total assets.
Income Taxes
The Company recorded an income tax provision for Texas Franchise Tax of approximately $2,000 and $54,000 during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2025, respectively. The Company recorded an income tax provision of approximately $37,000 and $128,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The effective tax rate was 0.1% and 0.6% for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and 2.5% and 1.7% for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2024, respectively.
The tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory tax rate in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to changes in valuation allowances on deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the Company’s deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company evaluates its tax positions on a quarterly basis and revises its estimate accordingly.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. Primarily all cash is held in US financial institutions which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not recognized any losses from credit risks on such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk on cash.
Additional credit risk is related to the Company’s concentration of accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, accounts receivable were concentrated from one customer (which is a US. government agency) representing 100% and 98% of total net receivables, respectively. No allowance for doubtful accounts were recorded as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
One customer (which is a U.S. government agency) accounted for 85% and 92% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively and 90% and 93% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively of the recognized research and development revenue.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to a number of risks common to development stage companies in the medical technology industry, including, but not limited to, risks of failure of preclinical studies and clinical trials, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, reliance on third party organizations, risks of obtaining regulatory approval for any products that it may develop, development by competitors of technological innovations, compliance with government regulations and the need to obtain additional financing.
Liquidity
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $10.5 million and $5.2 million, respectively, in cash, and an accumulated deficit of $56.9 million and $48.2 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $7.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of debt outstanding of which $6.6 million and$0 represented long-term debt as of such periods.
On March 24, 2025, the Company completed an equity financing and entered into a long-term debt financing agreement with Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund II, L.P., a fund of Avenue Capital Group (the “Avenue Financing”), which provides for the ability to borrow up to $15.0 million with an initial draw-down of $8.5 million, see Note 6.
In addition to the Avenue Financing, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company also raised approximately $2.8 million from the issuance of common stock and warrant to institutional investors, as well as existing UK investors, see Note 8.
In October 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement which provided for the issuance and sale of 3.1 million shares of common stock, at an offering price of $1.90 per share. In addition, in a concurrent private placement the Company issued and sold warrants for the purchase of up to 4.0 million shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 935,000 shares of common stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $7.6 million. See Note 12 for further information.
With the PBS BARDA Contract, the MTEC Agreement, and the Avenue Financing, the Company believes it has sufficient working capital to fund operations for at least one year beyond the release date of the condensed consolidated financial statements.
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUCEMENTS
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires more detailed income tax disclosures, requiring entities to disclose disaggregated information about their effective tax rate reconciliation as well as expanded information on income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The disclosure requirements will be applied on a prospective basis, with the option to apply them retrospectively. This update will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement- Reporting Comprehensive Income- Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), requiring public business entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The disclosures required under the guidance can be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The following table presents information about the Company’s financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):
| Quoted prices · Significant other · Significant | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fair value at September 30, 2025 · in active markets (Level 1) · observable inputs (Level 2) · unobservable inputs (Level 3) | |||||
| Warrant liabilities | $8,586 | $5,903 | $ | - | $2,683 |
| $8,586 | $5,903 | $ | - | $2,683 | |
| Quoted prices · Significant other · Significant | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fair value at December 31, 2024 · in active markets (Level 1) · observable inputs (Level 2) · unobservable inputs (Level 3) | ||||||
| Warrant liabilities | $6,451 | $6,410 | $ | - | $41 | |
| Short-term notes payable – Yorkville | $2,365 | $ | - | $ | - | $2,365 |
| $8,816 | $6,410 | $ | - | $2,406 | ||
There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Fair values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short-term debt are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Public Warrants, which trade in active markets, is based on quoted market prices and classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The Angel Warrants, Avenue Warrants and Investor Warrants are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because their fair values are based on significant inputs that are unobservable in the market.
The fair value of the Angel Warrants at September 30, 2025 was estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of the Investor Warrants and Avenue Warrants at March 21, 2025 (issuance date) was estimated using a simulation model.
The following table presents changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):
| Balance - January 1, 2024 | $47 |
|---|---|
| Change in fair value | (20) |
| Balance - March 31, 2024 | $27 |
| Change in fair value | (11) |
| Balance - June 30, 2024 | $16 |
| Change in fair value | $(12) |
| Balance – September 30, 2024 | $4 |
| Balance - January 1, 2025 | $41 |
|---|---|
| Fair value at issuance | 2,908 |
| Change in fair value | (37) |
| Balance - March 31, 2025 | $2,912 |
| Change in fair value | 1,739 |
| Balance - June 30, 2025 | $4,651 |
| Exercise of warrants | (1,705) |
| Change in fair value | (264) |
| Balance – September 30, 2025 | 2,682 |
Both observable and unobservable inputs were used to determine the fair value of warrants that the Company has classified within the Level 3 category. Unrealized gains and losses associated with liabilities within the Level 3 category include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable (e.g., changes in unobservable long-dated volatilities) inputs.
The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements inputs at their measurement:
| Angel Warrants | Investor Warrants | Avenue Warrants | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Valuation Method · Black Scholes · Monte Carlo · Monte Carlo | ||||
| Strike price (per share) | $7.32 | $1.80 | $1.66 | $7.32 |
| Contractual term (years) | 1.7 | 4.0 | 4.5 | 2.5 |
| Volatility (annual) | 90.8% | 80.0% | 80.0% | 70.6% |
| Risk-free rate | 3.7% | 3.69% | 3.7% | 4.3% |
| Dividend yield (per share) | 0.0% | 0.0% | 0.0% | 0.0% |
Warrant Liabilities
On September 11, 2023, in conjunction with the Business Combination, the Company assumed the Public Warrants which had an exercise price of $11.50 per share, are exercisable 30 days after the Business Combination and expire five years after the Business Combination or upon redemption. The Company may redeem the Public Warrants if the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value (“Common Stock”) equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the holders of Public Warrants. In November 2024, the Company amended the Public Warrants to have an exercise price of $2.75 per share. As of September 30, 2025, there are 8,433,333 Public Warrants outstanding. Each warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.75 per full share. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, a holder of Public Warrants may exercise its Public Warrants only for a whole number of shares of Common Stock. This means that only a whole warrant may be exercised at any given time by a holder of Public Warrants.
In September 2021, the Company issued 73,978 warrants, with a strike price of $7.32 and a five-year life, to SP Angel Corporate Finance LLP (“SP Angel”), who acted as nominated adviser and broker to the Company for the purposes of the AIM Rules relating to the London Stock Market (the “Angel Warrants”). In conjunction with the Business Combination, the Angel Warrants were converted into warrants to purchase Common Stock based on the exchange ratio as set forth in the Business Combination agreements. As of September 30, 2025, there are 73,978 Angel Warrants to purchase Common Stock outstanding.
On March 21, 2025, the Company entered into the purchase agreements with certain stockholders for the sale of an aggregate of 2,068,846 shares of Common Stock, at an offering price of $1.30 per Share (the “Purchase Agreements”). In a concurrent private placement pursuant to the Purchase Agreements (the “Private Placement”), the Company agreed to sell to the investors an aggregate of 2,068,846 warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.80 per share (the “Investor Warrants”). The Investor Warrants, along with the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Investor Warrants, were offered pursuant to the exemptions provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). No consideration was received by the Company for the issuance of the Investor Warrants.
As of September 30, 2025, there were 963,077 Investor Warrants to purchase Common Stock outstanding.
The Investor Warrants issued in connection with the Purchase Agreements are exercisable any time on or after March 20, 2025 (the “Issuance Date”) and on or prior to the close of business on the third anniversary of the Issuance Date. Additionally, the Investor Warrants issued in connection with the Purchase Agreements contain adjustment provisions in the event of (i) stock dividends and split, (ii) reclassifications of securities, (iii) issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Purchase Agreements), (iv) pro rata distributions, (v) Fundamental Transactions (as defined in the Warrants), and (vi) subsequent equity sales of shares of common stock or common stock equivalents for a consideration per share less than a price equal to $1.30. The Investor Warrants issued in connection with the Purchase Agreements also include a “Most Favored Nation” clause which grants the holders of such Investor Warrants the right, in their sole discretion, to elect to receive more favorable terms and conditions given to a subsequent investor in a subsequent financing transaction (including, but not limited to, a lower purchase price per share, a higher warrant coverage percentage, a lower warrant exercise price, a longer warrant exercise period, more favorable anti- dilution protections, preferential liquidation rights, enhanced voting rights, reduced fees or commissions, more advantageous registration rights, or the inclusion of additional incentives such as cash bonuses, dividend preferences, or equity sweeteners). The Investor Warrants were determined to be liability classified instruments, as certain terms preclude them from being considered indexed to the Company’s Common Stock. The gross proceeds of the Private Placement and Investor Warrants of $2.7 million were allocated to the Investor Warrants based on their fair value at issuance of $2.2 million, with the residual gross proceeds of $0.5 million allocated to the Common Stock. Total issuance costs incurred of $0.2 million were allocated between the Investor Warrants and Common Stock issued. Issuance costs allocated to the Investor Warrants of $43,000 were expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as borrowing related costs in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Issuance costs allocated to the Common Stock of $152,000 were recorded in additional paid-in-capital.
In May 2025,915,000 Investor Warrants, (the “Amended Investor Warrants”) were amended and restated. The amendment extended the contractual term such that the Amended Investor Warrants are exercisable any time on or prior to the close of business on the fifth anniversary of the Issuance Date and resulted in $137,000 increase in the fair value of the warrants.
On March 24, 2025, the Company completed the Avenue Financing, with an initial draw-down of $8.5 million. As part of the Avenue Financing the Company issued 768,072 warrants to Avenue Capital Group which was equal to 8.5% of the total funding commitment (the “Avenue Warrants”). The Avenue Warrants have an exercise price equal to the lower of $1.66 per share and the lowest price per share paid to the Company in cash for common stock through December 31, 2025. The Avenue Warrants were determined to be classified as a liability instrument as certain terms preclude them from being considered indexed to the Company’s Common Stock.
The net proceeds of Avenue Financing of $8.3 million were first allocated to the fair value of the Avenue Warrants, with the residual proceeds being allocated to the debt. The difference between debt proceeds and the amount of those proceeds allocated to debt gave rise to a debt discount of $0.7 million. The discount amount due to the Avenue Warrants of $0.7 million along with the loan fees allocated to the loan of $1.0 million, which includes the final payment of $0.8 million, for an aggregate debt discount and debt issuance costs of $1.7 million, will be amortized as interest expense through maturity using the effective interest method. The portion of loan fees allocated to the Avenue Warrants, of $22,000, were expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as borrowing related costs in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
As of September 30, 2025, there were 768,072 Avenue Warrants to purchase Common Stock outstanding.

Avenue Capital Financing
On March 24, 2025, the Company completed the Avenue Financing, with an initial draw-down of $8.5 million.
The term of the Avenue Financing is for three years, with an interest-only payment period of no less than 15 months, which can be extended to 24 months upon achieving the milestones for the second financing tranche. The second financing tranche, which includes an additional $6.5 million in debt financing from Avenue Capital Group is contingent upon; (i) FDA clearance of the DeepView System and (ii) the Company completing a $7.0 million equity raise. The borrowings under the Avenue Financing accrue interest at a variable amount per annum equal to the greater of (i) the sum of (A) the Prime Rate plus (B)5.25%, and (ii)12.75%, and they mature on March 1, 2028 (the “Maturity Date”). In addition, on the Maturity Date a final payment of $0.8 million is due to Avenue Capital Group and is accrued as debt as of September 30, 2025.
Up to $2.0 million of the borrowings under the Avenue Financing are convertible at the lender’s option, into a number of shares of common stock at a price per share equal to 120% of the exercise price of the Avenue Warrants discussed below. Pursuant to the guidance in ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, the Company evaluated whether the conversion feature needed to be bifurcated from the host instrument as a freestanding financial instrument. Under ASC 815-40, to qualify for equity classification (or non-bifurcation, if embedded) the instrument (or embedded feature) must be both (1) indexed to the issuer’s own stock and (2) meet the requirements of the equity classification guidance. Based upon the Company’s analysis, it was determined the conversion option is indexed to its own stock and also met all the criteria for equity classification. Accordingly, the conversion option is not required to be bifurcated from the host instrument as a derivative.
As part of the Avenue Financing the Company issued 768,072 warrants to Avenue Capital Group which was equal to 8.5% of the total funding commitment. The Avenue Warrants have an exercise price equal to the lower of $1.66 per share and the lowest price per share paid to the Company in cash for common stock through December 31, 2025. The Avenue Warrants were determined to be classified as a liability instrument as certain terms preclude them from being considered indexed to the Company’s Common Stock.
The net proceeds of Avenue Financing of $8.3 million were first allocated to the fair value of the Avenue Warrants, with the residual proceeds being allocated to the debt. The difference between debt proceeds and the amount of those proceeds allocated to debt gave rise to a debt discount of $0.7 million. The discount amount due to the Avenue Warrants of $0.7 million along with the loan fees allocated to the loan of $1.0 million, which includes the final payment of $0.8 million, for an aggregate debt discount and debt issuance costs of $1.7 million as shown in the table above, will be amortized as interest expense through maturity using the effective interest method. The portion of loan fees allocated to the Avenue Warrants, of $22,000, were expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as borrowing related costs in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
Repayment of Yorkville Convertible Notes
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company paid the remaining $2.4 million of Yorkville Convertible Notes of which $1.2 million was settled in cash and $1.2 million was settled in shares of common stock.
Insurance Notes
The Company determined that the carrying amounts of all of the insurance notes approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of borrowings and current market rates of interest.
