NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Business

SenesTech, Inc. (subsequently referred to in this report as “we,” “us,” “our,” or “our company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada in July 2004. On November 12, 2015, we subsequently reincorporated in the state of Delaware. Our corporate headquarters and manufacturing site are in Phoenix, Arizona. We have developed and are commercializing a global, proprietary technology for managing animal pest populations, initially rat populations, through fertility control. Our first product is known as ContraPest®.

ContraPest is a liquid bait containing the active ingredients 4-vinylcyclohexene diepoxide and triptolide. ContraPest limits reproduction of male and female rats beginning with the first breeding cycle following consumption. ContraPest is being marketed for use in controlling Norway and roof rat populations. In addition to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency registration of ContraPest, we must obtain registration from the various state regulatory agencies prior to selling in each state. To date, we have received registration for ContraPest in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, 49 of which have approved the removal of the Restricted Use designation, as well as the District of Columbia and five major U.S. territories.

In November 2023, we launched our latest product EvolveTM, a soft bait containing the active ingredient cottonseed oil. Evolve limits reproduction of male and female rats after one to two breeding cycles following consumption. Evolve is considered a minimum risk pesticide under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, Section 25(b). We must obtain registration from the various state regulatory agencies that do not accept the federal exemption. To date, we are authorized to sell Evolve in 33 states.

Going Concern

Our condensed financial statements as of March 31, 2024 were prepared under the assumption that we would continue as a going concern. The reports of our independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies our financial statements for each of the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 contain a going concern qualification in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, based on the financial statements at that time. Specifically, we have incurred operating losses since our inception, and we expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future. These prior losses and expected future losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our financial condition. If we encounter continued issues or delays in the commercialization of fertility control products, our expected future losses could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and negatively impact our ability to fund continued operations, obtain additional financing in the future and continue as a going concern. There are no assurances that such financing, if necessary, will be available to us at all or will be available in sufficient amounts or on reasonable terms. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we are unable to generate additional funds in the future through additional financings, sales of our products, licensing fees, royalty payments or from other sources or transactions, we will exhaust our resources and will be unable to continue operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since our inception, we have sustained significant operating losses in the course of our research and development and commercialization activities and expect such losses to continue for the near future. We have generated limited revenue to date from product sales, research grants and licensing fees received under a former license agreement. We have primarily funded our operations to date through the sale of equity securities, including convertible preferred stock, common stock and warrants to purchase common stock.

We have also raised capital through debt financing, consisting primarily of convertible notes and government loan programs, and, to a lesser extent, payments received in connection with product sales, research grants and licensing fees.

As of March 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $131.7 million and cash and cash equivalents of $3.6 million.

Table of Contents

product candidates; (ii) market acceptance, commercial viability and profitability of fertility control products and other products; (iii) the ability to market our products and establish an effective sales force and marketing infrastructure to generate significant revenue; (iv) the success of our research and development; (v) the ability to retain and attract key personnel to develop, operate and grow our business; and (vi) our ability to meet our working capital needs.

While we have evaluated and continue to evaluate our operating expenses and concentrate our resources toward the successful commercialization of fertility control products in the United States, additional financing will be needed before achieving anticipated revenue targets and margin targets. If we are unable to raise necessary capital through the sale of our securities, we may be required to take other measures that could impair our ability to be successful and operate as a going concern. In any event, additional capital is needed in order to fund our operating losses and research and development activities before we become profitable. We may never achieve profitability or generate positive cash flows, and unless and until we do, we will continue to need to raise capital through equity or debt financing. If such equity or debt financing is not available at adequate levels or on acceptable terms, we may need to delay, limit or terminate commercialization and development efforts or discontinue operations.

Condensed Financial Statements

Our accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In our opinion, the unaudited condensed financial statements include all material adjustments, all of which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2024, and our operating results and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The accompanying financial information as of December 31, 2023 is derived from audited financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2024.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective or adopted in the current year that we believe have a significant impact, or potential significant impact, to our condensed financial statements.

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 and classification of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates in our financial statements include the valuation of inventory, common stock warrants, and stock-based awards, such as stock options and restricted stock units. Actual results could differ from such estimates.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and was $61,000 and $41,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Comprehensive Loss

We have no other comprehensive income items for the periods presented. As a result, our net loss and comprehensive loss were the same for the periods presented and a separate statement of comprehensive loss is not included in the accompanying condensed financial statements.

NOTE 5: STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In 2018, our stockholders approved the adoption of the SenesTech, Inc. 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) which provides for the issuance of stock-based instruments, such as stock options or restricted stock units, to employees or consultants as deemed appropriate. The 2018 Plan has since been amended and restated on certain occasions, most recently on June 26, 2023, when our stockholders approved an increase to the total number of authorized shares to 70,717 shares.

Currently, we only have stock options outstanding under the 2018 Plan, which are generally issued with a per share exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock at the date of grant. Options granted generally vest immediately, or ratably over a 12- to 36-month period coinciding with their respective service periods, with terms generally of five years. Certain stock option awards provide for accelerated vesting upon a change in control.

As of March 31, 2024, we had 42,049 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2018 Plan.

Table of Contents

The following table presents the outstanding stock option activity:

NOTE 7: COMMON STOCK WARRANTS

The following table presents the common stock warrant activity:


	Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)
Outstanding as of December 31, 2023	7,775,734	$	2.95	3.4

Exercised	(4,608)	1.30		—

Outstanding as of March 31, 2024	7,771,126	2.95		3.1

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, warrants representing 4,608 shares of common stock were exercised with an exercise price of $1.30 per share.

NOTE 8: LOSS PER SHARE

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, which includes prefunded warrants and shares held in abeyance from date of issuance. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares used in the basic loss per share calculation plus potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period determined using the treasury stock method. Stock options and warrants are considered to be potentially dilutive securities but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive given the net losses reported for all periods presented. Therefore, basic and diluted loss per share are the same for each period presented.

Table of Contents

The following shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024	2023
Common stock warrants	—	265,401
Stock options	—	23,371

	—	288,772

NOTE 9: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Overview

Since our inception, we have sustained significant operating losses in the course of our research and development and commercialization activities and expect such losses to continue for the near future. Although sales of our product have increased over the last three years, 17% in 2023, 77% in 2022 and 123% in 2021, we are not yet able to fund operations by product sales alone. We have primarily funded our operations to date through the sale of equity securities, including convertible preferred stock, common stock and warrants to purchase common stock. We have also generated limited revenue from research grants and licensing fees received under former license agreements.

Through March 31, 2024, we received net proceeds of $101.8 million from our sales of common stock, preferred stock and warrant exercises and issuance of convertible and other promissory notes, an aggregate of $1.7 million from licensing fees and an aggregate of $4.1 million in net product sales. As of March 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $131.7 million and cash and cash equivalents of $3.6 million.

We have incurred significant operating losses every year since our inception, with a net loss of $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and generate operating losses for at least the next six months.

Our ultimate success depends upon the outcome of a combination of factors, including the following: (i) successful commercialization of fertility control products and maintaining and obtaining regulatory approval of our products and product candidates; (ii) market acceptance, commercial viability and profitability of fertility control products and other products; (iii) the ability to market our products and establish an effective sales force and marketing infrastructure to generate significant revenue; (iv) the success of our research and development; (v) the ability to retain and attract key personnel to develop, operate and grow our business; and (vi) our ability to meet our working capital needs.

Table of Contents

While we have evaluated and continue to evaluate our operating expenses and concentrate our resources toward the successful commercialization of fertility control products in the United States and internationally, additional financing will be needed before achieving anticipated revenue targets and margin targets. If we are unable to raise necessary capital through the sale of our securities, we may be required to take other measures that could impair our ability to be successful and operate as a going concern. In any event, additional capital is needed in order to fund our operating losses and research and development activities before we become profitable. We may never achieve profitability or generate positive cash flows, and unless and until we do, we will continue to need to raise capital through equity or debt financing. If such equity or debt financing is not available at adequate levels or on acceptable terms, we may need to delay, limit or terminate commercialization and development efforts or discontinue operations.

Results of Operations

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the periods presented (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,				% Increase (Decrease)

Revenues

Sales, net of sales discounts and promotions, were $415,000 for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $233,000 for the first quarter of 2023. The $182,000 increase was driven by the launch of our latest product Evolve in November 2023. Evolve is a soft bait containing the active ingredient cottonseed oil and represented approximately 56%, or $232,000, of revenues for the first quarter of 2023.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales consisted primarily of the cost of products sold, including scrap and reserves for obsolescence, and was $280,000, or 67.5% of net sales, for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $141,000, or 60.4% of net sales, for the first quarter of 2023. Cost of sales in the first quarter of 2024 was impacted by the higher cost of a key ingredient in our new Evolve product, as we transitioned from development-stage raw materials pricing to production-level raw materials pricing. Cost of sales in the first quarter of 2023 was impacted by the scrapping of defective trays no longer used in our products, which totaled $42,000.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2024 was $135,000, for a gross profit margin of 32.5%, compared to a gross profit of $92,000, or a gross profit margin of 39.6%, for the first quarter of 2023. The gross profit margin in the first quarter of 2024 was impacted by both the higher-than-expected cost of a key ingredient in our new Evolve product, combined with an increased proportion of our sales coming from distributors. The gross profit margin in the first quarter of 2023 was impacted by the higher cost of sales related to the scrapping of defective tanks during no longer used in our products.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consisted of the following (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Increase (Decrease)
	2024		2023
Personnel (including stock-based compensation)	$	198	$	242	$	(44)
Facility-related	39		26		13
Depreciation	30		28		2
Supplies and maintenance	28		30		(2)
Professional fees	18		44		(26)
Stability studies, materials and testing	16		3		13
Other	41		14		27
Total	$	370	$	387	$	(17)

Research and development expenses were $370,000 for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $387,000 for the first quarter of 2023. The $17,000 decrease was primarily due to lower headcount and consulting and legal fees required for research and development purposes, which was partially offset by higher expenses overall related to field and product improvement studies in the first quarter of 2024 when compared with the first quarter of 2023.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses consisted of the following (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Increase (Decrease)
	2024		2023
Personnel (including stock-based compensation)	$	862	$	903	$	(41)
Professional fees	314		452		(138)
Marketing	73		54		19
Licensed software	69		65		4
Insurance	61		86		(25)
Travel and entertainment	59		74		(15)
Facilities	40		38		2
Other	130		78		52
Total	$	1,608	$	1,750	$	(142)

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.6 million for the first quarter of 2024, as compared to $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2023. The decrease of $142,000 was primarily due to lower professional fees. Consulting fees related to marketing efforts are lower in the first of 2024 when compared with the first quarter of 2023 due to changes in our overall marketing program, while legal fees are lower due to the settlement of a legal matter in November 2023. Additionally, personnel-related expenses were lower due to lower headcount and stock-based compensation and insurance is lower resulting from both policy and rate changes. These decreases were offset by higher franchise fees in the first quarter of 2024 when compared to the first quarter of 2023.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net for the first quarter of 2024 consisted of interest income of $15,000, partially offset by interest expense of $4,000, while the first quarter of 2023 consisted of interest income of $8,000.

Table of Contents

Interest income was higher due to a combination of a higher average balance of cash and cash equivalents and higher interest rate during the first quarter of 2024 when compared with the first quarter of 2023. Interest expense in the first quarter of 2024 relates to the notes payable entered into in late 2023 related to the purchase of certain equipment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Since our inception, we have sustained significant operating losses in the course of our research and development activities and commercialization efforts and expect such losses to continue for the near future. We have generated limited revenue to date from product sales, research grants and licensing fees received under a former license. We have primarily funded our operations to date through the sale of equity securities, including convertible preferred stock, common stock and warrants to purchase common stock; and debt financing, consisting primarily of convertible notes.

Through March 31, 2024, we have received net proceeds of $101.8 million from our sales of common stock, preferred stock and warrant exercises and issuance of convertible and other promissory notes, an aggregate of $4.1 million in net product sales and an aggregate of $1.7 million from licensing fees. As of March 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $131.7 million and cash and cash equivalents of $3.6 million.

Our ultimate success depends upon the outcome of a combination of factors, including the following: (i) successful commercialization of our fertility control products and maintaining and obtaining regulatory approval of our products and product candidates; (ii) market acceptance, commercial viability and profitability of our fertility control products and any other products; (iii) the ability to market our products and establish an effective sales force and marketing infrastructure to generate significant revenue; (iv) the success of our research and development activities; (v) the ability to retain and attract key personnel to develop, operate and grow our business; and (vi) our ability to meet our working capital needs.

Based upon our current operating plan, we expect that cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2024, in combination with anticipated revenue and any additional sales of our equity securities, will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next six months. We have evaluated and will continue to evaluate our operating expenses and will concentrate our resources toward the successful commercialization of our fertility control products in the United States and internationally. However, if anticipated revenue targets and margin targets are not achieved or expenses are more than we have budgeted, we may need to raise additional financing before that time. If we need more financing, including within the next six months, and we are unable to raise the necessary capital through the sale of our securities, we may be required to take other measures that could impair our ability to be successful and operate as a going concern. In any event, we may require additional capital in order to fund our operating losses and research and development activities before we become profitable and may opportunistically raise capital. We may never achieve profitability or generate positive cash flows, and unless and until we do, we will continue to need to raise capital through equity or debt financing. If such equity or debt financing is not available at adequate levels or on acceptable terms, we may need to delay, limit or terminate commercialization and development efforts or discontinue operations.

Additional Funding Requirements

We expect our expenses to continue or increase in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we focus on marketing and sales of fertility control products. In addition, we will continue to incur costs associated with operating as a public company.

In particular, we expect to incur substantial and increased expenses as we:

•work to maximize market acceptance for, and generate sales of, our products, including by conducting field demonstrations for potential lead customers;

•explore strategic partnerships to enable us to penetrate additional target markets and geographical locations;

•manage the infrastructure for sales, marketing and distribution of fertility control products and any other product candidates for which we may receive regulatory approval;

•seek additional regulatory approvals for fertility control products, including to more fully expand the market and use for fertility control products and, if we believe there is commercial viability, for our other product candidates;

Table of Contents

•further develop our manufacturing processes to contain costs while being able to scale to meet future demand of fertility control products and any other product candidates for which we receive regulatory approval;

•continue product development of fertility control products and advance our research and development activities and, as our operating budget permits, advance the research and development programs for other product candidates;

•maintain and protect our intellectual property portfolio; and

•add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support our product development and commercialization efforts and operations as a public company.

We will need additional financing to fund these continuing and additional expenses.

Capital Resources

The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash for each of the periods presented (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of period	$	5,395	$	4,775

Financing activities	(2)		(11)

Our net loss was driven by costs related to our selling, general and administrative activities resulting from our continued efforts to commercialize our products, combined with research and development costs. Net cash used by changes in our operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of increases in inventory of $79,000 and accounts receivable of $66,000, a net decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $11,000, and a decrease in deferred revenue of $3,000, partially offset by decrease in prepaid expenses of $42,000.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, operating activities used $2.0 million of cash, resulting from our net loss of $2.0 million, partially offset by net changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $178,000 and by non-cash charges of $200,000, consisting primarily of stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization expense.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities—Financing activities provide cash for both day-to-day operations and capital requirements as needed. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in financing activities consisted of repayments on notes payable of $8,000, partially offset by proceeds received from the exercise of warrants of $6,000. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in financing activities consisted of the payment of employee withholding taxes related to share-based awards.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION	Mar. 31, 2024
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION	BASIS OF PRESENTATION Nature of Business SenesTech, Inc. (subsequently referred to in this report as “we,” “us,” “our,” or “our company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada in July 2004. On November 12, 2015, we subsequently reincorporated in the state of Delaware. Our corporate headquarters and manufacturing site are in Phoenix, Arizona. We have developed and are commercializing a global, proprietary technology for managing animal pest populations, initially rat populations, through fertility control. Our first product is known as ContraPest®. ContraPest is a liquid bait containing the active ingredients 4-vinylcyclohexene diepoxide and triptolide. ContraPest limits reproduction of male and female rats beginning with the first breeding cycle following consumption. ContraPest is being marketed for use in controlling Norway and roof rat populations. In addition to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency registration of ContraPest, we must obtain registration from the various state regulatory agencies prior to selling in each state. To date, we have received registration for ContraPest in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, 49 of which have approved the removal of the Restricted Use designation, as well as the District of Columbia and five major U.S. territories. In November 2023, we launched our latest product EvolveTM, a soft bait containing the active ingredient cottonseed oil. Evolve limits reproduction of male and female rats after one to two breeding cycles following consumption. Evolve is considered a minimum risk pesticide under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, Section 25(b). We must obtain registration from the various state regulatory agencies that do not accept the federal exemption. To date, we are authorized to sell Evolve in 33 states. Going Concern Our condensed financial statements as of March 31, 2024 were prepared under the assumption that we would continue as a going concern. The reports of our independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies our financial statements for each of the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 contain a going concern qualification in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, based on the financial statements at that time. Specifically, we have incurred operating losses since our inception, and we expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future. These prior losses and expected future losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our financial condition. If we encounter continued issues or delays in the commercialization of fertility control products, our expected future losses could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and negatively impact our ability to fund continued operations, obtain additional financing in the future and continue as a going concern. There are no assurances that such financing, if necessary, will be available to us at all or will be available in sufficient amounts or on reasonable terms. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we are unable to generate additional funds in the future through additional financings, sales of our products, licensing fees, royalty payments or from other sources or transactions, we will exhaust our resources and will be unable to continue operations. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since our inception, we have sustained significant operating losses in the course of our research and development and commercialization activities and expect such losses to continue for the near future. We have generated limited revenue to date from product sales, research grants and licensing fees received under a former license agreement. We have primarily funded our operations to date through the sale of equity securities, including convertible preferred stock, common stock and warrants to purchase common stock. We have also raised capital through debt financing, consisting primarily of convertible notes and government loan programs, and, to a lesser extent, payments received in connection with product sales, research grants and licensing fees. As of March 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $131.7 million and cash and cash equivalents of $3.6 million. Our ultimate success depends upon the outcome of a combination of factors, including the following: (i) successful commercialization of fertility control products and maintaining and obtaining regulatory approval of our products and product candidates; (ii) market acceptance, commercial viability and profitability of fertility control products and other products; (iii) the ability to market our products and establish an effective sales force and marketing infrastructure to generate significant revenue; (iv) the success of our research and development; (v) the ability to retain and attract key personnel to develop, operate and grow our business; and (vi) our ability to meet our working capital needs. Based upon our current operating plan, we expect that cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2024, in combination with anticipated revenue and any additional sales of our equity securities, will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next six months. While we have evaluated and continue to evaluate our operating expenses and concentrate our resources toward the successful commercialization of fertility control products in the United States, additional financing will be needed before achieving anticipated revenue targets and margin targets. If we are unable to raise necessary capital through the sale of our securities, we may be required to take other measures that could impair our ability to be successful and operate as a going concern. In any event, additional capital is needed in order to fund our operating losses and research and development activities before we become profitable. We may never achieve profitability or generate positive cash flows, and unless and until we do, we will continue to need to raise capital through equity or debt financing. If such equity or debt financing is not available at adequate levels or on acceptable terms, we may need to delay, limit or terminate commercialization and development efforts or discontinue operations. Condensed Financial Statements Our accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In our opinion, the unaudited condensed financial statements include all material adjustments, all of which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2024, and our operating results and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The accompanying financial information as of December 31, 2023 is derived from audited financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2024. Recent Accounting Pronouncements There have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective or adopted in the current year that we believe have a significant impact, or potential significant impact, to our condensed financial statements. 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 and classification of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates in our financial statements include the valuation of inventory, common stock warrants, and stock-based awards, such as stock options and restricted stock units. Actual results could differ from such estimates. Advertising Costs Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and was $61,000 and $41,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Comprehensive Loss We have no other comprehensive income items for the periods presented. As a result, our net loss and comprehensive loss were the same for the periods presented and a separate statement of comprehensive loss is not included in the accompanying condensed financial statements.
