| 1. | NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
Nature of Business
Vicarious Surgical Inc. (including its subsidiaries, “Vicarious” or the “Company”) (formerly D8 Holdings Corp. (“D8”)) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on May 6, 2020. The Company’s legal name became Vicarious Surgical Inc. following a business combination between the Company and Vicarious Surgical Inc., a Delaware corporation, on September 17, 2021 (the “Business Combination”). The Company is headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts.
The Company is currently developing its differentiated surgical robotic system using proprietary de-coupled actuators to virtually transport surgeons inside the patient to perform minimally invasive surgical procedures.
Going Concern
Since inception, the Company has generated negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $253,446. The Company has not yet generated any revenue from operations. Additional risks to which the Company is exposed include uncertainties related to the ability to achieve a revenue-generating product; current and potential competitors with greater financial, technological, production, and marketing resources; dependence on key management personnel; and raising additional capital, as needed. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability to raise additional debt or equity capital. On March 3, 2026, the NYSE suspended trading of the Company’s Class A common stock and commenced proceedings to delist the Class A common stock. The Class A common stock commenced quotation on the OTCID at the open of business on March 4, 2026. The quotation of the Company’s Class A common stock was upgraded to the OTCQB on March 24, 2026. The OTCQB is a significantly more limited market than the NYSE. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company.
Management does not believe that the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments balance at March 31, 2026 of $3,682 will be sufficient to support the Company’s operations for the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements, and accordingly, this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Due to a reduction in headcount effective March 6, 2026, the Company expects that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to support its operations through the second quarter of 2026. To address the Company’s capital needs, the Company must continue to actively pursue additional equity or debt financing. The Company has been in ongoing discussions with potential investors with respect to such financing. Adequate financing opportunities might not be available to the Company, when and if needed, on acceptable terms or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms under such circumstances, the Company’s operating results and prospects will be adversely affected. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, included herein, was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company.
The condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2026, the Company’s results of operations, and stockholders’ equity for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and the Company’s cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or for any interim period or for any other future year.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Form 10-Q and determined that there have been no events that have occurred that would require adjustments to disclosures in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
| 2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods presented. Estimates are used for, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, depreciation of property and equipment, fair value of financial instruments, and contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
US GAAP requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs for the valuation techniques. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The most observable inputs are used, when available. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:
Level 1—Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2—Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3—Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of checking accounts, money market funds, U.S. treasury securities and U.S. government agency securities. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash
The Company has an agreement to maintain a cash balance of $679 at March 31, 2026 and $936 at December 31, 2025, as collateral for a letter of credit related to the Company’s lease. In connection with the second amendment of its lease, the landlord made a draw on the letter of credit in January 2026 in the amount of $257.The balance of $679 is classified as long-term on the Company’s balance sheets as the lease period ends in March 2032.
Short-Term Investments
All of the Company’s investments, which consist of U.S. treasury securities and U.S. government agency securities, are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. There were unrealized losses of $6 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026. There were unrealized losses of $32 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025.
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet risk, such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts, or other foreign hedging arrangements. Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents principally with accredited financial institutions of high-credit standing. Periodically, there may be times when the deposits exceed the FDIC insurance limits.
Warrant Liabilities
The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge its exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. Management evaluates all of the Company’s financial instruments, including issued warrants to purchase its Class A common stock, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and ASC 815-15. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.
As part of the Business Combination, the Company assumed 17,249,991 publicly traded warrants (the “Public Warrants”) and 10,400,000 warrants sold in a private placement (the “Private Placement Warrants”), each exercisable to purchase shares of Class A common stock. Both the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants outstanding are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrants as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the warrant liability to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the statement of operations. The fair value of Public Warrants was determined from their trading value on public markets. The fair value of Private Placement Warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is included in the determination of net loss. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company continually evaluates whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate that the estimated remaining useful life of its long-lived assets may warrant revision or that the carrying value of these assets may be impaired. The Company does not believe that any events have occurred through March 31, 2026, that would indicate its long-lived assets are impaired.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
As permitted under Delaware law, the Company indemnifies its officers, directors, consultants and employees for certain events or occurrences that happen by reason of the relationship with, or position held at, the Company. Through March 31, 2026, the Company had not experienced any losses related to these indemnification obligations, and no claims were outstanding. The Company does not expect significant claims related to these indemnification obligations and, consequently, concluded that the fair value of these obligations is negligible, and no related liabilities have been established.
Research and Development
Research and development costs are expensed in the period incurred. Research and development costs include payroll and personnel expenses, consulting costs, software and web services, legal, raw materials and allocated overhead such as depreciation and amortization, rent and utilities. Advance payments for goods and services to be used in future research and development activities are recorded as prepaid expenses and are expensed over the service period as the services are provided or when the goods are consumed.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for all stock-based compensation, including stock options, performance-based stock options (“PSOs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based RSUs (“PSUs”), warrants and other forms of equity issued as compensation for services, at fair value and recognizes stock-based compensation expense for those equity awards, net of actual forfeitures, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award.
The fair value of the Company’s stock options and PSOs on the date of grant is determined by a Black-Scholes option pricing model utilizing key assumptions such as stock price, expected volatility and expected term. The Company’s estimates of these assumptions are primarily based on the fair value of the Company’s stock, historical data, peer company data used in combination with the Company’s data for volatility, and judgment regarding future trends. The Company uses its publicly traded stock price as the fair value of its common stock.
The fair value of RSUs and PSUs are based on the closing stock price on the grant date.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method pursuant to ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, the Company determines deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that management believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized in the future. In making such a determination, management considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations.
The Company provides reserves for potential payments of taxes to various tax authorities related to uncertain tax positions. Amounts recognized are based on a determination of whether a tax benefit taken by the Company in its tax filings or positions is “more likely than not” to be sustained on audit. The amount recognized is equal to the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be sustained. Interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions are recorded as a component of income tax expense.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, including potential dilutive common stock. For the purpose of this calculation, outstanding stock options, PSOs, RSUs, PSUs and stock warrants are considered potential dilutive common stock and are excluded from the computation of net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive.
Accordingly, in periods in which the Company reports a net loss, such losses are not allocated to such participating securities. In periods in which the Company reports a net loss attributable to common stockholders, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, since dilutive common shares are not assumed to be outstanding when their effect is anti-dilutive.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09,Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 requires a public business entity (“PBE”) to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. For PBEs, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. An entity may apply the amendments in this ASU prospectively by providing the revised disclosures for the period ending December 31, 2025 and continuing to provide the pre-ASU disclosures for the prior periods, or may apply the amendments retrospectively by providing the revised disclosures for all period presented. As of December 31, 2025, the Company adopted this new ASU prospectively and it only impacts the Company's income tax disclosures with no impact to its operations, cash flows, or financial condition.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03,Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The amendments in this ASU clarify and enhance certain presentation and reporting requirements related to expense disclosures. The guidance in ASU 2024-03 is effective for public business entities, including smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has not yet adopted ASU 2024-03. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 and does not expect that adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
| 3. | Short-term investments |
Short-term investments consist of U.S. treasury and U.S. government agency securities and are classified as available-for-sale.
Available-for-sale investments are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive income. The fair values of the Company’s available-for-sale cash and cash equivalents securities are Level 1 measurements, based on quoted prices from active markets for identical assets. The fair values of the Company’s available-for-sale short-term investments securities are Level 2 measurements, based on quoted prices from inactive markets for identical assets.
The amortized cost, gross unrealized holding gains, gross unrealized holding losses and fair value of the Company’s marketable securities by type of security as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were as follows:
| Amortized Cost | Gross Unrealized Gains | Gross Unrealized Losses | Fair Value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assets: | ||||
| U.S. treasury and U.S. government securities | 2,277 | — | (2) | 2,275 |
| Total assets | $2,277 | $— | $(2) | $2,275 |
| Amortized Cost | Gross Unrealized Gains | Gross Unrealized Losses | Fair Value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assets: | ||||
| U.S. treasury and U.S. government securities | 7,219 | 4 | — | 7,223 |
| Total assets | $7,219 | $4 | $— | $7,223 |
The aggregate fair value of available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2026 was $2,012. The Company did not have any investments in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than twelve months as of March 31, 2026.
| 4. | PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET |
Property and equipment, net consist of the following:
| Estimated | March 31, | December 31, | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Useful Lives | 2026 | 2025 | |
| Machinery and equipment | 3 to 5 years | $2,954 | $3,177 |
| Furniture and fixtures | 3 to 7 years | 1,031 | 1,031 |
| Computer hardware and software | 3 years | 1,370 | 1,370 |
| Leasehold improvements | Lesser of lease term or asset life | 1,498 | 1,498 |
| Total property and equipment | 6,853 | 7,076 | |
| Less accumulated depreciation | (5,759) | (5,808) | |
| Property and equipment, net | $1,094 | $1,268 |
Depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $183 and $369, respectively.
| 5. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
The following fair value hierarchy table presents information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:
| Quoted Prices | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| in Active · Significant | ||||
| Markets for Identical Items · Other observable Inputs · Significant Unobservable Inputs | ||||
| (Level 1) | (Level 2) | (Level 3) | Total | |
| Assets: | ||||
| Money market funds | $579 | $— | $— | $579 |
| U.S. treasury securities | — | 2,275 | — | 2,275 |
| Total assets | $579 | $2,275 | $— | $2,854 |
| Quoted Prices | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| in Active · Significant | ||||
| Markets for Identical Items · Other observable Inputs · Significant Unobservable Inputs | ||||
| (Level 1) | (Level 2) | (Level 3) | Total | |
| Assets: | ||||
| Money market funds | $594 | $— | $— | $594 |
| U.S. treasury securities | — | 7,223 | — | 7,223 |
| Total assets | $594 | $7,223 | $— | $7,817 |
Money market funds are classified as cash and cash equivalents. U.S. treasury securities are classified as cash equivalents when the date from initial purchase to maturity is less than 90 days. The remaining investments are classified as short-term investments.
The carrying values of prepaid expenses, right of use assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The fair values of the Company’s short-term investments are Level 2 measurements as the US government securities are not the most recent offerings and are therefore not traded in an active market.
The fair value of the Public Warrants is determined from their trading value on public markets. The Public Warrants were suspended from trading on the NYSE on December 15, 2025 and were subsequently delisted. As such, the value of the Public Warrants is$0 as of March 31, 2026. The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions used in the model were the Company’s stock price, exercise price, expected term, volatility, interest rate, and dividend yield.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company didnot recognize a gain or loss in the statement of operations as the fair value of warrant liabilities did not change. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recognized a loss to the statement of operations resulting from an increase in the fair value of liabilities of $93 presented as change in fair value of warrant liabilities on the accompanying statement of operations.
The Company estimates the volatility of its warrants based on implied volatility from the Company’s Public Warrants and from historical volatility of select peer companies’ common stock that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero.
The following table provides quantitative information regarding the inputs used in determining the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 liabilities:
| Private Placement Warrants | As of March 31, 2026 | As of December 31, 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Volatility | 215.0% | 215.0% |
| Stock price | $0.72 | $2.17 |
| Expected life of warrants | 0.5 years | 0.7 years |
| Risk-free rate | 3.7% | 3.5% |
| Dividend yield | 0.0% | 0.0% |
The following table shows the change in number and value of the warrants since December 31, 2025:
| Public | Private | Total | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shares | Value | Shares | Value | Shares | Value | |
| December 31, 2025 | 17,248,601 | $— | 10,400,000 | $— | 27,648,601 | $— |

The balance due under the financing agreement was $371 as of March 31, 2026.
| 8. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
From time to time, the Company may face legal claims or actions in the normal course of business.

| ● | in whole and not in part; |
| ● | at a price of $0.30 per warrant; |
| ● | upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and |
| ● | if, and only if, the last reported sale price of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $540.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 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 warrant holders. |
Redemption of warrants when the price per share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $300.00. The Company may call the Public Warrants for redemption:
| ● | in whole and not in part; |
| ● | at a price of $3.00 per warrant; |
| ● | upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of the Company’s Class A common stock; and |
| ● | if, and only if, the last reported sale price of Class A common stock shares equals or exceeds $300.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. |
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, (i) are not redeemable by the Company, (ii) may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis and (iii) are entitled to registration rights. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

The 2021 Plan provides for the granting of incentive and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, and other stock-based awards to employees, officers, directors, consultants, and advisors of the Company. Under the 2021 Plan, incentive and nonqualified stock options may be granted at not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. If an incentive stock option is granted to an individual who owns more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of the Company’s capital stock, the exercise price may not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and the term of the option may not be longer than five years. PSOs include threshold, target, and maximum achievement levels based on the achievement of specific performance measures. PSOs are subject to forfeiture if applicable performance measures are not attained. The expense is recognized over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of share units expected to vest. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of share units expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period. In June 2024,123,510 PSOs were granted and represent the maximum achievement levels based on the achievement of specific performance measures relating to the Company’s clinical trial advancement. As of March 31, 2026, there are no outstanding PSOs.
The 2021 Plan authorizes the Company to issue up to 1,542,544 shares of common stock (either Class A or Class B) pursuant to awards granted under the 2021 Plan. The Board of Directors administers the 2021 Plan and determines the specific terms of the awards. The contractual term of options granted under the 2021 Plan is not more than 10 years. The 2021 Plan will expire on April 13, 2031 or an earlier date approved by a vote of the Company’s stockholders or Board of Directors.
The Company periodically issues RSUs of Class A common stock to certain employees and members of the Board of Directors. The RSUs generally vest over a four-year period. PSUs are issued in the form of performance share units. PSUs include threshold, target, and maximum achievement levels based on the achievement of specific performance measures. PSUs are subject to forfeiture if applicable performance measures are not attained. The expense is recognized over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of share units expected to vest. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of share units expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period. As of March 31, 2026, there are no outstanding PSUs.
The activity for common stock subject to vesting is as follows:
| Shares Subject to Vesting | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value | |
|---|---|---|
| Balance of unvested shares - January 1, 2026 | 23,641 | $80.27 |
| Vested | (6,877) | $97.81 |
| Balance of unvested shares - March 31, 2026 | 16,764 | $73.08 |
The total stock-based compensation related to the RSUs during the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $673. As of March 31, 2026, the total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested RSUs aggregated $930 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.87 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of the RSUs vested during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $13. The aggregate intrinsic value of RSUs outstanding at March 31, 2026 was $12.
The Company grants stock options to employees at exercise prices deemed by the Board of Directors to be equal to the fair value of the Class A common stock at the time of grant. The Company uses its publicly traded stock price as the fair value of its common stock. For options with a service condition, the fair value of the Company’s stock options on the date of grant is determined by a Black-Scholes pricing model utilizing key assumptions such as common stock price, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, expected volatility and expected life. The Company’s estimates of these assumptions are primarily based on the fair value of the Company’s stock, historical data and judgement regarding future trends.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, the Company granted options to purchase 10,000 and 2,450 shares, respectively, of Class A common stock, to employees and consultants with a fair value of $17 and $27 respectively, calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
| Three Months Ended | Three Months Ended | |
|---|---|---|
| March 31, | March 31, | |
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.90% | 4.32% |
| Expected term, in years | 6.00 | 6.08 |
| Dividend yield | —% | —% |
| Expected volatility | 103.33% | 102.44% |
The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates appropriate for the term of the related stock options. The expected life of employee and non-employee stock options was calculated using the average of the contractual term of the option and the weighted-average vesting period of the option. The Company does not pay a dividend and is not expected to pay a dividend in the foreseeable future.
As of March 31, 2026, there was $2,764 of total gross unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options. The costs remaining as of March 31, 2026 are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.17 years.
Total stock-based compensation expense related to all of the Company’s stock-based awards granted is reported in the statements of operations as follows:
| For the Three Months Ended March 31, | ||

| Weighted average shares | 7,120,298 | 5,924,397 |
| Net loss per share of Class A and Class B common stock – basic and diluted | $(1.03) | $(2.60) |
For the three months ended March 31, 2026,3,972,657 shares of the Company’s common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices of the stock options and warrants were greater than or equal to the average price of the common shares and were therefore anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2025,1,682,081 shares of the Company’s common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices of the stock options and warrants were greater than or equal to the average price of the common shares and were therefore anti-dilutive.
| 14. | SEGMENT REPORTING |
The Company operates asone operating segment, and thereforeone reportable segment. The Company manages business activities on a consolidated basis through the development of the surgical robotic system.

For the Company’s segment, the CODM uses net loss, that is reported on the consolidated statements of operations as consolidated net loss, to allocate resources (including employees, property, and financial resources), predominantly during the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM also uses consolidated net loss, along with non-financial inputs and qualitative information, to evaluate the Company’s performance, establish compensation, monitor budget versus actual results, and decide the level of investment in the Company’s various operating activities and other capital allocation activities. The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheet as total consolidated assets. The accounting policies for the Company’s single operating segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.
