Current report
Total revenue increased compared with the prior-year periods, primarily reflecting higher product sales from the Company’s operations. Comparability to the prior year was also affected by the divestiture of the TA&T subsidiary during the first quarter of 2025.
Current report
Product revenue growth was driven primarily by increased sales within the Company’s OEM technical manufacturing products, reflecting improved customer demand and pricing, together with initial commercial sales of the SiNAPTIC Foot & Ankle Osteotomy Wedge System. These increases were partially offset by lower grant and contract revenue, which can fluctuate based on the timing and scope of funded projects.
Current report
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, research and development expenses decreased by $0.7 million, or 54%, compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to $0.7 million in the reallocation of certain overhead costs to general and administrative expenses (also see explanation below). Other research and development expenses remained consistent during the period.
Current report
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, research and development expenses decreased by $1.4 million, or 60%, compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to $1.4 million in the reallocation of certain overhead costs to general and administrative expenses (also see explanation below). Other research and development expenses remained consistent during the period.
Current report
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, grant and contract expenses decreased by $46,000, or 96%, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to the decrease in grant and contract revenue.
Current report
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, grant and contract expenses decreased by $44,000, or 44%, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to the decrease in grant and contract revenue.
Current report
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, other income, net decreased by $0.2 million, or 48%, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to a $0.4 million decrease in gain on disposal of equipment, partially offset by a $0.2 million increase from the change in value of derivative liabilities.
Current report
As discussed in Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, in June 2026, we entered into securities purchase agreements for aggregate proceeds of approximately $4.5 million.

Revenue from ongoing product lines and customer activities increased compared to the prior year period, driven by growth in the Company’s spine-related product offerings and continued demand within its OEM technical manufacturing business. In addition, activity under grant and contract programs contributed to period-over-period variability.
Previous report
These increases were partially offset by the absence of revenue associated with the Company’s former TA&T subsidiary, which was divested in Q1 2025.
Previous report
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, grant and contract expenses increased by $2,000, or 4%, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to the increase in grant and contract revenue.

Previous wording
Our product revenue is derived from the manufacture and sale of products. These revenue sources primarily include coatings, materials, and components for aerospace and medical device markets, toll processing services, and government contracts and grants. We generally recognize revenue from sales where control transfers at a point in time as the title and risk of loss passes to the customer, which is at the time the product is shipped. In general, our customer does not have rights of return or exchange.

The Company continues to support its OEM technical manufacturing product line as an important source of revenue and cash flow. Recent pricing initiatives have improved the profitability of this product line while allowing the Company to continue investing in the commercialization of its proprietary silicon nitride-based biomedical devices, including its orthopedic product portfolio. Management expects the OEM product line and its proprietary medical technology initiatives to remain complementary components of the Company’s long-term growth strategy.
Previous wording
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, cost of revenue decreased by $10,000, or 4%, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to a continued focus on higher-margin sales.
Current wording
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, cost of revenue increased by $0.1 million, or 85%, compared to the same period in 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, cost of revenue increased by $0.1 million, or 21%, compared to the same period in 2025. Cost of revenue increased at a lower rate than revenue primarily due to the Company’s continued focus on higher-margin sales and a favorable sales mix, with improved pricing on certain OEM products, during the current period. Although the Company expects this strategy to continue to support profitability, gross margin may fluctuate from period to period based on product mix, pricing, manufacturing efficiencies, customer demand, and the mix of product and grant and contract revenue.
Previous wording
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, research and development expenses decreased by $0.8 million, or 67%, compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a $0.3 million reduction in headcount-related costs and $0.5 million due to the reallocation of certain overhead costs to general and administrative expenses. Historically, a significant portion of our operations was focused on research and development, resulting in the majority of overhead costs being allocated to research and development. As our focus has shifted toward commercialization, a greater portion of these costs is now classified as general and administrative.

Previous wording
The board of directors and management remain aligned in advancing the Company’s strategic direction and business objectives. While we expect to continue generating a significant portion of our revenues from our industrial business operations, management is increasingly concentrating resources on high-growth areas within the healthcare sector where our proprietary materials and technologies—such as silicon nitride—provide a distinct competitive advantage due to their unique strength, durability, and biocompatibility. We believe our established industrial activities provide an important operational and revenue foundation that supports the continued development and commercialization of our medical technologies. Building upon our established advanced materials expertise and recent FDA 510(k) clearance of the SiNAPTIC Foot & Ankle Osteotomy Wedge System, we are focused on commercializing our medical technologies and advancing additional silicon nitride-based compositions and applications for orthopedic, spinal, wound care, and other medical markets in order to expand our footprint in the medical device sector and support long-term shareholder value creation.

Despite the actions undertaken by management to improve liquidity and operating costs—including the divestiture of non-core operations, implementation of cost improvement initiatives, commercialization of newly cleared medical products, access to capital through our ATM program, and execution of the Armor facility sublease—management has concluded that substantial doubt remains regarding our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. Our ability to continue as a going concern will depend on our ability to generate increased revenues, achieve profitability, obtain additional financing, and successfully execute our strategic business objectives. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Net cash used in operating activities was $2.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1.3 million used during the same period in 2025, an increase of $1.2 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in net loss of $0.5 million, combined with increases in inventories of $0.4 million, change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $0.3 million, accounts receivable of $0.2 million and decreases in non-cash adjustments of $0.2 million for non-employee stock based compensation and $0.1 million in impairment cost.

Current wording
Net cash provided by financing activities was $4.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $4.1 million provided during the same period in 2025.
