Atomera Incorporated
Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30,
2026 and 2025
1.
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Atomera Incorporated (“Atomera”
or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in March 2007 under the name MEARS Technologies, Inc. and is engaged
in the development, commercialization and licensing of proprietary processes and technologies for the semiconductor industry. On January
12, 2016, the Company changed its name to Atomera Incorporated.
Atomera is an early-stage
company, having only limited revenue-generating activities, and is devoting substantially all its efforts toward technology research and
development and to commercially licensing its technology to designers and manufacturers of integrated circuits.
2.
LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT PLANS
At June 30, 2026, the Company
had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $ 38.4 million and working capital of approximately $ 36.7 million.
The Company has generated only limited revenues since inception and has incurred recurring operating losses. Accordingly, it is subject
to all the risks inherent in the initial organization, financing, expenditures, and scaling of a new business that is not generating positive
cashflow.
On May 31, 2022, Atomera
entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. and Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC (“Craig-Hallum”),
as agents, under which the Company offered and sold, from time to time at its sole discretion, shares of its $0.001 par value common stock
in an at the market offering to or through the agents, having aggregate offering proceeds of approximately $44.8 million (the “2022
ATM”). The 2022 ATM Facility expired on March 18, 2025.
On May 27, 2025, Atomera
entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Craig-Hallum as agent, under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time
at its sole discretion, shares of its $ 0.001 par value common stock in an at-the-market offering to or through the agent, having aggregate
offering proceeds of up to $50.0 million (the “2025 ATM”). During six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company sold approximately
1.3 million shares of common stock pursuant to 2025 ATM at an average price per share of approximately $ 2.47 resulting in approximately
$ 3.1 million in net proceeds to the Company after deducting commissions and other offering expenses. The Company did no t sell any shares
of common stock pursuant to the 2025 ATM during the three months ended June 30, 2026.
On February 24, 2026,
the Company completed a registered direct offering (the “Offering”) of 5,000,000
shares of its $ 0.001
par value common stock at a purchase price of $ 5.00
per share pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors.
In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into a placement agent agreement with Craig-Hallum, pursuant to which
Craig-Hallum served as the exclusive placement agent for the issuance and sale of securities of the Company pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement. As compensation for such placement agent services, the Company paid Craig-Hallum an aggregate cash fee equal to 5.0% of
the gross proceeds received by the Company from the Offering and agreed to reimburse up to $ 75,000
of legal and other expenses actually incurred. Net proceeds to the Company after deducting the placement agent fee and expenses were
approximately $ 23.6
million.
Based on the funds it has
available as of the date of the filing of this report, the Company believes that it has sufficient capital to fund its current business
plans and obligations over, at least, 12 months from the date that these financial statements have been issued. The Company’s future
capital requirements and the adequacy of its available funds will depend on many factors, including the Company’s ability to successfully
commercialize its technology, competing technological and market developments, and the need to enter into collaborations with other companies
or acquire technologies to enhance or complement its current offerings.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material
changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 24, 2026.
Basis of Presentation of Unaudited Condensed Financial Information
The unaudited condensed
financial statements of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and
pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the
information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of
the Company’s financial position and its results of operations. Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be obtained for the full fiscal year. The balance sheet information as of December 31, 2025 was derived
from the audited financial statements included in the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31,
2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2026. These unaudited condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-Term Investments
The Company considers
all highly-liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. Cash
equivalents may be invested in money market funds, treasury bills or U.S. government agency bonds. Cash and cash equivalents are
carried at cost, which approximates their fair value.
The Company may also purchase
short-term investments comprised of U.S. treasury bills and U.S. government agency bonds with maturities of more than three months, but
less than one year. The Company classifies these as available-for-sale at their purchase date and will reevaluate such designation at
each period end date. The Company may sell these marketable debt securities prior to their stated maturities depending upon changing liquidity
requirements. These debt securities are classified as current assets in the condensed balance sheets and recorded at fair value, with
unrealized gains or losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Gains and losses are recognized
when realized. Gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method and are reported in other income, net in the condensed
statements of operations when incurred. Unrealized gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income (loss) on the condensed
balance sheets.
Recent Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03 (as clarified by ASU 2025-01
in January 2025), Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation
of Income Statement Expenses ASU 2023-03, requiring public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories
in the notes to the financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption
permitted. The Company does not believe ASU 2024-03 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or financial
statement disclosure.
9
In May 2025, the FASB issued
ASU 2025-04 Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Clarifications
to Share-Based Consideration Payable to a Customer which clarifies the guidance on the accounting for share-based payment awards that
are granted by an entity as consideration payable to its customer, with the intent to reduce diversity in practice and improve existing
guidance by revising the definition of a “performance condition” and eliminating a forfeiture policy election for service
conditions associated with share-based consideration payable to a customer. It also clarifies the guidance in Topic 606 on the variable
consideration constraint does not apply to share-based consideration payable to a customer “regardless of whether an award’s
grant date has occurred”. ASU 2025-04 will be effective for the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026
with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe ASU 2025-04 will have a material impact on its financial position, results
of operations or financial statement disclosure.
In September 2025, the FASB
issued ASU 2025-06 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the
Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The amendments require that an entity capitalize software costs when both: management has authorized
and committed to funding the software project; and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to
perform the function intended (referred to as the “probable-to-complete recognition threshold”). In evaluating the probable-to-complete
recognition threshold, an entity is required to consider whether there is significant uncertainty associated with the development activities
of the software. ASU 2025-06 will be effective for the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company does not believe
ASU 2025-06 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosure.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Accounting Standards Codification
(“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements states that fair value represents the amount that would be received to sell an
asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement
that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The three-tiered
fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes which inputs should be used in measuring fair value, consists of:
Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted)
in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 — Inputs other than Level
1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, unadjusted
quoted prices in the markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data
for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs
that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Company’s cash
equivalents and short-term investments were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as Level 1 assets.
The Company’s cash,
cash equivalents and short-term investments classified by security type as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 consisted of the following

REVENUE
The Company recognizes revenue
in accordance with ASC 606. The amount of revenue that the Company recognizes reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange
for goods or services and such revenue is recognized at the time when goods or services are transferred and/or delivered to its customers.
Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring the product or service to the customer, either
at a point in time or over time. Revenue from MSTcad licenses is recognized over a period of time.

Unbilled contracts receivable
Timing of revenue recognition
may differ from the timing of invoicing customers. Accounts receivable includes amounts billed and currently due from customers. Unbilled
contracts receivable represents unbilled amounts expected to be received from customers in future periods, where the revenue recognized
to date exceeds the amount billed, and the right to receive payment is subject to the underlying contractual terms. Unbilled contracts
receivable amounts may not exceed their net realizable value and are classified as long-term assets if the payments are expected to be
received more than one year from the reporting date. The Company had no unbilled contracts receivable as of June 30, 2026.
Deferred Revenue
The Company records deferred
revenue for customers that were issued invoices, but from which the Company has not yet recognized the revenue based on its revenue recognition
policy. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had no deferred revenue.

6.
BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per share
is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share
is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common
stock outstanding and the dilutive common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s potentially dilutive
common stock equivalent shares, which include incremental common shares issuable upon (i) the exercise of outstanding stock options and
(ii) vesting of restricted stock units and (iii) restricted stock awards, are only included in the calculation of diluted net loss per
share when their effect is dilutive. Since the Company has had net losses for all periods presented, all potentially dilutive securities
are anti-dilutive. Accordingly, basic and diluted net loss per share are equal.
The following potential common
stock equivalents were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share because the inclusion thereof would be anti-dilutive
(in thousands):

LEASES
The Company accounts for
leases over one year under ASC 842. Lease expense for the Company’s operating leases consists of the lease payments recognized on
a straight-line basis over the lease term. Expenses for the Company’s financing leases consists of the amortization expenses recognized
on a straight-line basis over the lease term and interest expense.
The Company’s lease
agreement for an epitaxial deposition tool used in the development and marketing of the Company’s technology established a monthly
lease payment of $150,000 per month. The lease contains a provision for an annual adjustment of lease payments based on tool availability
and usage during the preceding 12 months and the adjusted payment is calculated on August 1 of each year of the lease. Effective August
1, 2024, the lease payments for this tool were adjusted to $124,071 per month for the period August 1, 2024 through July 31, 2025. This
adjustment to the lease payments also resulted in a reduction in the right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and corresponding lease liability.
Effective August 1, 2025, the lease payments for this tool were adjusted to $133,125 per month for the period August 1, 2025 through April
30, 2026. The final three months of the lease were prepaid at the commencement of the lease. This adjustment to the lease payments also
resulted in a reduction in the ROU asset and corresponding lease liability.
In December 2025, the Company
and its landlord amended the lease of the corporate headquarters in Los Gatos, California. The amendment extends the expiration date of
the lease from January 2026 to March 2031. An additional ROU asset and lease liability of approximately $ 856,000 was recorded during the
year ended December 31, 2025. The lease liability is based on the present value of the minimum lease payments, discounted using an estimated
incremental borrowing rate of 8.75 %. The lease contains escalating payments on the anniversary of the original commencement of the lease
which are included in the measurement of the lease liability. Additional payments based on a change in the Company’s share of the
operating expenses, including property taxes and insurance are recorded as a period expense when incurred.

In February 2026, the
Company and its landlord amended the lease of its Tempe office location. The lease also contains a performance standard for research collaboration
with Arizona State University. The agreement requires a minimum value of collaboration in each year of the lease. The lease is accounted
for under ASC 842 and accordingly, the research payments are included in the ROU and lease liability. The lease is for three years with
an option to extend the lease for an additional two years. The lease liability is based on the present value of the minimum lease payments,
discounted using an estimated incremental borrowing rate of 8.75 %. An ROU asset and lease liability of approximately $ 342,000 was recorded
during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
In December 2025, the Company
enteredz into a lease agreement for an epitaxial deposition tool in Tempe, Arizona, distinct from the tool previously mentioned. The term
of this lease is for 12 months beginning on January 1, 2026 for $95,000 per month. Since the lease term is not for more than one year
and there are no extension provisions in the lease, the future lease payments are not included in the lease obligations on the Company’s
condensed balance sheets.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
In May 2017, the Company’s
shareholders approved its 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (“2017 Plan”) after its 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (“2007 Plan”)
had expired in March 2017. The 2017 Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options to purchase
shares of the Company’s common stock and for the grant of restricted and unrestricted shares of common stock and restricted stock
units. The 2017 Plan provides for the issuance of 3,750,000 shares of common stock. In May 2023, the Company’s shareholders approved
its 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (“2023 Plan”). The 2023 plan provides for the issuance of 2,000,000 shares of common stock.
In May 2025, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 2023 Plan, adding an additional 1,750,000 shares to this plan.
All employees (including officers and directors who are also employees), as well as all of the nonemployee directors and other consultants,
advisors and other persons who provide services to the Company are eligible to receive incentive awards under the 2017 Plan and 2023 Plan.
Generally, stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units issued under the 2017 Plan and 2023 Plan vest over a period of one
to four years from the date of grant. As of June 30, 2026, a total of approximately 729,000 shares remain available for issuance under
the plans.
The following table summarizes

Time-Based Stock Options:
The Company records compensation
expense for time-based stock options over the vesting term using the straight-line method. The fair value of employee stock options issued
was estimated using the Black-Scholes method and the average grant date fair value was estimated to be $ 5.00 for both three and six months
ended June 30, 2025 and $ 8.54 and $ 4.45 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. The following table summarizes

The intrinsic value is based

Performance-based Stock Options:
In March 2026, the Company
began issuing performance-based stock options (“PSOs”) to certain employees. The PSOs include both time-based and stock-price-based
vesting thresholds, with 25% of the PSO time-vesting one year after the grant date and the remaining PSOs time-vesting over the next three
years, but the PSOs only vest and become exercisable if the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock as quoted
on the Nasdaq Stock Market over any 30 consecutive trading days during the five-year period from the date of grant exceeds the stock-price
hurdles specified in the PSO awards. The stock-price hurdles for PSOs granted were $ 7.50 , $ 12.50 and $ 20.00 . The fair value of these PSOs
was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation and the stock compensation expense is amortized over the requisite service period for each
tranche, which is the longer of the derived service period or the explicit service period. Approximately 184,000 options achieved the
performance criteria and will begin vesting one year after the grant date. The average grant date fair value was determined to be $ 3.87
on the day of grant. The following table summarizes PSO activity during the six months ended June 30, 2026 (in thousands except exercise
prices and contractual terms):

Restricted Stock Units:
The Company issues restricted
stock units (“RSUs”) to employees, directors and consultants and a portion of the RSUs issued are subject to time-based vesting
and a portion are subject to performance-based vesting criteria. The fair value of time-based RSUs is based on the closing price on the
day of grant and they vest over zero to four years. Awards of performance-based restricted stock units by the Company have a performance
period of one, two or three years with the vesting of each award tranche dependent on the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”)
relative to the TSR of companies in the Russell 2000 Index over that tranche’s performance period. The fair value for performance-based
awards is fixed at the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation and the amount of compensation expense is not adjusted during the performance
period regardless of changes in the level of TSR achievement. The following table summarizes all restricted stock unit activity during
the six months ended June 30, 2026 (in thousands except per share data):
