R eport of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Heartflow, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Heartflow, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, of redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders' equity (deficit) and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

1. Business Overview
Description of Business
HeartFlow Holding, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Delaware in July 2007 as Cardiovascular Simulation, Inc. and changed its name to HeartFlow, Inc. in May 2009. On March 1, 2021, HeartFlow, Inc. completed an internal reorganization in which a newly formed parent holding company, HeartFlow Holding, Inc., was established.
On July 17, 2025, HeartFlow Holding, Inc.’s stockholders and Board of Directors approved the consolidation of HeartFlow Holding, Inc. with and into HeartFlow, Inc., with HeartFlow, Inc. continuing as the surviving company. The previous holders of HeartFlow Holding, Inc.’s common stock and preferred securities became holders of HeartFlow, Inc.’s common stock and preferred securities based on a 1 -to-1 conversion ratio, and the equity incentive plan, outstanding equity awards, outstanding warrants and certain other equity-related agreements of HeartFlow Holding, Inc. were assumed by HeartFlow, Inc. In connection with this consolidation, HeartFlow, Inc. changed its name to Heartflow, Inc. (the “Company”).
The Company is a commercial-stage medical technology company that provides software and artificial intelligence (“AI”) designed to deliver a non-invasive solution for diagnosing and managing coronary artery disease (“CAD”). The Company’s novel Heartflow Platform uses AI and advanced computational fluid dynamics to create a personalized 3D model of a patient’s heart based off a single coronary computed tomography angiography (“CCTA”). This results in actionable data on blood flow, stenosis, plaque volume and plaque composition. The Company’s Heartflow FFR CT Analysis and Plaque Analysis software assists physicians in diagnosing, managing and delivering precision care to patients with CAD. The Company was awarded Conformité Européene Mark for its Heartflow FFR CT Analysis in July 2011. The Company received clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in November 2014 for its Heartflow FFR CT Analysis and in October 2022 for its Plaque Analysis.
The Company’s headquarters is located in Mountain View, California, and the Company also has offices in Santa Rosa, San Francisco, and Rohnert Park, California, Austin, Texas, and Tokyo, Japan.
The Company had the following wholly-owned subsidiaries as of December 31, 2025:
Entity Name
Country of Incorporation
HeartFlow Japan G.K.
Japan
HeartFlow U.K. Ltd
United Kingdom
Effective November 2025, HeartFlow Technology U.K. Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary in the United Kingdom, was dissolved. Effective July 2024, HeartFlow International Sarl, a wholly-owned subsidiary in Switzerland, was dissolved.
Reverse Stock Split
On July 31, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Company ’ s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to immediately effect a reverse stock split of the shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock at a ratio of 1.0-for-2.92 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The number of authorized shares and par value per share were not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. All references to shares, options to purchase common stock, share amounts, per share amount, and related information contained in the consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented. The shares of common stock underlying outstanding stock options and other equity instruments were proportionately reduced and the respective exercise prices, if applicable, were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of the agreements governing such securities. In addition, the conversion ratios for each series of the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock, which automatically convert into shares of common stock upon the closing of the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) of common stock, were proportionally adjusted.
97
Table of Contents
Initial Public Offering
On August 11, 2025, the Company completed its IPO of 19,166,667 shares of its common stock, which included an additional 2,500,000 shares of common stock purchased by the underwriters pursuant to their option to purchase additional shares, at a price to the public of $ 19.00 per share. The gross proceeds to the Company from the IPO were approximately $ 364.2 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company of $ 31.8 million. Immediately prior to the closing of the Company’s IPO, all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock converted into shares of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, upon the closing of the Company’s IPO, the aggregate outstanding principal balance under the 2025 Convertible Notes (as defined in Note 2) automatically converted into shares of the Company’s common stock.
Liquidity
The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of $ 1.1 billion as of December 31, 2025. The Company expects to incur losses for the foreseeable future. Historically, the Company’s activities have been financed through sales of shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock, common stock and convertible promissory notes, borrowings under term loans and revenue received from customers.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $ 280.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and investments in available-for-sale securities.
Based on the Company’s current operating plan, the Company believes that the expected cash generated from revenue transactions with customers and its existing cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities will be sufficient to fund the Company’s planned operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company as well as its wholly owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management uses significant judgment when making estimates in the determination of stock-based compensation, deferred income tax valuation allowance, capitalized internal-use software, depreciation of property and equipment, allowance for credit losses, revenue recognition, valuation of operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities, common stock warrant liability and for periods prior to the Company’s IPO, the fair value of convertible debt, the valuation of common stock and derivative liability. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors and adjusts those estimates and assumptions as facts and circumstances dictate. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Segment Information
The Company operates and manages its business as one reportable and operating segment, which is the business of non-invasive CAD detection solutions. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), reviews financial information, including revenue and net loss, presented on a

consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources and evaluating financial performance.
The Company ’ s measure of segment profit or loss is consolidated net loss, which is used by the CODM to measure actual results versus expectations, set performance metrics, and develop the annual budget to achieve the Company’s long-term objectives. Significant segment expenses within consolidated net loss includes cost of revenue, research and development, and selling, general and administrative expenses, which are each separately presented on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Other expense items that are presented on the consolidated statements of operations include interest income, interest expense, changes in fair value of warrant liability, change in fair value of derivative liability, loss on extinguishment of debt, other income, net, and provision for income taxes.
The following table is representative of the significant expense categories regularly provided to the CODM when managing the Company’s single reporting segment and includes a reconciliation to the consolidated net loss shown in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

The Company derives revenue and has long-lived assets primarily in the United States of America. Revenue by geography is further described in Note 3.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of amounts invested in money market accounts.

Investments
Short-term and long-term investments consist of debt securities classified as available-for-sale. Short-term investments have original maturities greater than 90 days, but less than one year as of the balance sheet date. Long-term investments have maturities greater than one year as of the balance sheet date. All investments are recorded at fair value based on the fair value hierarchy. Unrealized gains and losses, deemed temporary in nature, are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses are included in earnings and are derived based on the specific-identification method for determining the costs of investments sold. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts are reported as a component of interest income.
A decline in the fair value of any security below cost that is deemed other than temporary results in a charge to earnings and the corresponding establishment of a new cost basis for the investment. The Company evaluates the securities in an unrealized loss position for expected credit losses by considering factors such as historical experience, market data, issuer-specific factors, current economic conditions and credit ratings. The Company did no t recognize any credit losses on its available-for-sale securities during the year ended December 31, 2025 and there were no impairment charges for unrealized losses during the period. The Company had no investments during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing 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 Company discloses and recognizes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). The accounting guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 - Observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in 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; and
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.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments carried at amortized cost, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities and market interest rates, if applicable. Management believed that the Company’s Term Loan (as defined in Note 8) and 2025 Convertible Notes (as defined below in this Note 2) then outstanding bore interest at the prevailing market rates for instruments with similar characteristics; accordingly, the carrying value of these instruments approximated their fair value as of December 31, 2024. Fair value accounting is applied to investments, common stock warrant liability and derivative liability. No common stock warrant liability or derivative liability were outstanding as of December 31, 2025.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, investments, restricted cash and accounts receivable. The Company maintains bank deposits in federally insured financial institutions and these deposits may at times exceed federally insured limits. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its cash deposits. The Company currently has full control of its cash and cash equivalents balance. Cash equivalents are invested in highly rated money market funds. The Company invests in a variety of financial instruments, such as, but not limited to, commercial paper, corporate bonds/notes, U.S. government securities, U.S. treasury bills, agency bonds/notes, and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure with any one financial institution or commercial issuer. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents or investments.
No single customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s revenue during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
No single customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Accounts Receivable
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions and generally extends credit to customers without requiring collateral. Accounts receivable are recorded at the amounts billed less estimated allowances for credit losses for any potential uncollectible amounts. The Company continually monitors customer payments and maintains an allowance for estimated losses resulting from a customer’s inability to make required payments. The Company considers factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable balances, geographic related risks and economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Accounts receivable are written-off and charged against an allowance for credit losses when the Company has exhausted collection efforts without success.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets, which generally ranges from two to five years . Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of their useful life or the remaining life of the lease. Upon sale or retirement of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in results from operations in the period realized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When factors indicate that long-lived assets should be evaluated for possible impairment, the Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining useful life of the long-lived assets in measuring whether they are recoverable. If the carrying value of the asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, a loss is recorded as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value. No assets were determined to be impaired during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company capitalizes certain legal, accounting and other third-party fees that are directly associated with in-process equity financings as deferred offering costs until such financings are consummated. After consummation of the equity financing, these costs are recorded as a reduction of the proceeds from the offering, either as a reduction of the carrying value of preferred stock or in stockholders’ equity (deficit) as a reduction of additional paid-in capital generated as a result of the offering. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, deferred offering costs of $ 0 and $ 413,000 ,
101
Table of Contents
respectively, were capitalized within other non-current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The deferred offering costs were reclassified as a reduction to equity as a result of the closing of the IPO in August 2025.
Internal-Use Software
The Company capitalizes certain costs related to internal-use software during the application development stage. Costs related to planning and post implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Capitalized internal-use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life, which is generally two years , after the product is deployed and ready for use. The Company evaluates the useful lives of these assets on an annual basis and tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. Capitalized internal-use software costs are classified as a component of property and equipment, net.
Leases
At the inception of a contractual arrangement, the Company determines whether the contract contains a lease by assessing whether there is an identified asset and whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset in exchange for consideration over a period of time.
An ROU asset and corresponding lease liability are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. An ROU asset represents the right to control the use of an identified asset over the lease term and a lease liability represents the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments, as the discount rate implicit in the lease is not readily available. The lease terms used to calculate the ROU asset and related lease liabilities include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company elected to account for contracts that contain lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s only leases were for its facilities, which are classified as operating leases with lease expense recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease costs, which primarily consist of common area maintenance, taxes, and utility charges are expensed as incurred. The Company does not have any finance leases.
Term Loan
Prior to its repayment in August 2025, the Term Loan (as defined in Note 8) was accounted for at amortized cost. Original debt issuance costs were deferred and presented as a reduction to the carrying value of the Term Loan. Debt discount and debt issuance costs were amortized using the effective interest method and recorded in interest expense within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. See Note 8 for information about the repayment of the 2024 Term Loan and termination of the 2024 Credit Agreement.
Upon repayment of the 2024 Term Loan, the remaining unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs were recognized as a loss on extinguishment of debt within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
2022 Convertible Notes
The Company issued Convertible Notes from September 2022 to December 2022, which were all converted to Series F-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock in March 2023. Refer to Notes 9 for additional information. The Convertible Notes contained embedded features that provided the Note Investors with multiple settlement alternatives. Rather than accounting for the embedded features that qualified as derivatives separately, the Company elected to account for the Convertible Notes at fair value each reporting period. Debt issuance costs were expensed as incurred. Until their conversion in March 2023, the Company recognized the changes in fair value (including interest) as change in fair value of convertible note within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
2025 Convertible Notes
102
Table of Contents
The Company issued convertible notes in January and March 2025 (the “2025 Convertible Notes”) to various investors and certain employees (the “Requisite Holders”), which were accounted for at amortized cost. Debt issuance costs were deferred and presented as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2025 Convertible Notes prior to their conversion upon the IPO. The Company determined that certain features of the 2025 Convertible Notes contained embedded derivatives that provided the Requisite Holders with multiple settlement alternatives, and the embedded features that qualified as derivatives were accounted for separately. Debt discount and debt issuance costs were amortized using the effective interest method and recorded to interest expense within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company recognized the changes in fair value of the derivative liability as changes in fair value of derivative liability within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss through the IPO date. Upon the closing of the Company’s IPO, the aggregate principal balance of the 2025 Convertible Notes of $ 98.3 million converted into 6,470,743 shares of common stock, and the derivative liability balance of $ 24.6 million and the remaining unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs of $ 28.8 million were reclassified to additional paid-in capital. Refer to Note 9 and Note 13 for additional information
Common Stock Warrants
Prior to its net exercise in October 2025, the Company’s warrants to purchase common stock that were issued in connection with the Term Loan were classified as a liability. The warrants were recorded at fair value upon issuance and were subject to remeasurement to fair value at each balance sheet date, with any changes in fair value recognized as change in fair value of common stock warrant within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Refer to Note 12 for additional information.
Embedded Derivatives
Prior to its refinancing in June 2024, the Term Loan (as defined in Note 8) contained certain prepayment features, a default put option and default interest adjustment features that were determined to be embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation and separate accounting as a single compound derivative, as discussed in Note 13. The impact of bifurcation of the embedded derivative on the date of issuance was reflected as a debt discount. The fair value of the derivative liability related to the Company’s Term Loan, as discussed in Note 8, was estimated using a scenario-based analysis comparing the probability-weighted present value of the Term Loan payoff at maturity with and without the bifurcated features. This method isolates the value of the embedded derivative by measuring the difference in the host contract’s value with and without the isolated features. The resulting cash flows were discounted at the Company’s borrowing rate, as adjusted for fluctuations in the market interest rate from the inception of the Company’s comparative borrowings to the reporting date, to measure the fair value of the embedded derivative. Until its derecognition in June 2024, the derivative liability was remeasured to fair value at each reporting period, and the related change was reflected as change in fair value of derivative liability on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Prior to their conversion upon the IPO, the 2025 Convertible Notes contained certain settlement features and default put options that were determined to be embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation and separate accounting as a single compound derivative, as discussed in Note 13. The impact of the bifurcation of the embedded derivatives on the date of issuances in January and March 2025 was reflected as a debt discount. The fair value of the derivative liability related to the Company’s 2025 Convertible Notes, as discussed in Note 9, were estimated using a scenario-based analysis comparing the probability-weighted present value of the 2025 Convertible Notes with and without the bifurcated features. This method isolates the value of the embedded derivatives by measuring the difference in the host contract’s value with and without the isolated features. To measure the fair value of the embedded derivatives, the resulting cash flows were discounted using appropriate discount rates that reflect the overall implied risk of the instruments based on their purchase prices and adjusted for fluctuations in the market and Company interest rates when necessary. Prior to the Company’s IPO, the derivative liability was remeasured to fair value at each reporting period and the related change was reflected as a change in fair value of derivative liability on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss until the conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes in connection with the IPO in August 2025.

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
Prior to its IPO, the Company recorded redeemable convertible preferred stock at fair value on the dates of issuance, net of issuance costs, which was classified outside of stockholders’ equity (deficit) because the preferred shares were contingently redeemable upon the occurrence of an event that is outside of the Company’s control. Upon the closing of the Company ’ s IPO, all shares of convertible preferred stock then outstanding automatically converted into an aggregate of 51,226,348 shares of common stock.
Revenue Recognition
The Company sells its Heartflow Platform to medical providers in the United States and in select international markets. The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:
• Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
• Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
• Determination of the transaction price;
• Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
• Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company identified a single performance obligation, which is comprised of a highly interdependent bundle of goods or services that are not distinct on their own but are as a group and consists of the requested analysis, including an image file and related licenses and support. Revenue recognition commences only after completion of installation, implementation and training for new customer accounts. The Company’s service consists of providing a visualization of the patient’s coronary arteries and enables physicians to create more effective treatment plans. This service is normally billable upon delivery of the analysis to the physician. Payment terms are generally net 30 days.
Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is from usage-driven fees and generated on a “pay per click” basis each time a physician orders the Company’s Heartflow FFR CT Analysis and Plaque Analysis. Revenue is recognized when control of these services is transferred to the customer, at an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those services. The Company recognizes usage-driven fee revenue upon delivery of the requested analysis to the physician, which is when control of these services is transferred to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the contract term for subscriptions where the customer pays a fixed amount upfront for unlimited analyses. Contracts with customers typically include a fixed amount of consideration and are generally cancellable with 30 days ’ written notice.
The transaction price consists of fixed consideration and variable consideration related to utilization and volume rebates for reimbursement claims from government and commercial payors which are known and determinable based on the number of analyses delivered within each quarterly period. The transaction price (inclusive of both fixed consideration and variable consideration that is not constrained) is recognized as revenue when control transfers. The Company uses a portfolio approach to estimate variable consideration using the expected value method.
Unbilled Receivables
Unbilled receivables generally represent revenue in which the Company has satisfied its performance obligation prior to invoicing. The Company records unbilled receivables within accounts receivable, net on the consolidated balance sheets, based on the Company’s unconditional right to payment at the end of the applicable period.
Contract Costs
Costs associated with product revenue include a flat rate commission per analysis and new customer site commissions as well as implementation and onboarding costs. The Company capitalizes new customer site
104
Table of Contents
commissions and certain contract fulfillment costs, which include implementation and onboarding costs that are considered to be incremental to the acquisition of new customer contracts. Capitalized contract fulfillment costs are amortized over an estimated period of benefit of two years and capitalized new site commission costs are amortized over an estimated period of benefit of three years . The estimated period of benefit is determined by evaluating average customer life, the nature of the related benefit, and the specific facts and circumstances of the arrangements. The Company evaluates these assumptions at least annually and periodically reviews whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred that could impact the period of benefit.
The Company expenses flat rate commissions when incurred as commensurate with its usage-driven fee revenue recognition and amortizes capitalized new customer site commissions to selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. During the year ended December 31, 2023, new site commission costs were not capitalized as the amount was not material. The Company amortizes capitalized contract fulfillment costs to cost of revenue in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied. It includes contract liabilities and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods and does not include contracts where the customer is not committed. The customer is considered not committed when they are able to terminate for convenience without payment of a substantive penalty under the contract. Additionally, as a practical expedient, the Company has not disclosed the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.
Contract Liabilities
The Company records contract liabilities when billings or payments are received in advance of revenue recognition. The contract liabilities balance is reduced as the revenue recognition criteria is met, generally within 12 months. Once services are available to customers, the Company records amounts due in accounts receivable, net and contract liabilities within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. To the extent the Company bills customers in advance of the billing period commencement date, the accounts receivable and corresponding contract liabilities amount are netted to zero on the consolidated balance sheets, unless such amounts have been paid as of the balance sheet date.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists of personnel and related expenses, including stock-based compensation costs, primarily related to our production team. Additional costs include third-party hosting fees, amortization of capitalized internal-use software, amortization of contract fulfillment costs as well as royalties associated with technology licenses used in connection with the delivery of the Company’s product and allocated overhead, which includes facilities expenses, equipment, depreciation and technology services. These costs are partially offset by capitalized contract fulfillment costs. The role of the production team is to support the Company’s patient case volume revenue by performing defined quality-related activities on CCTA scans submitted by its customers for analysis. The portion of these costs that supports patient case volume revenue is recorded as cost of revenue. The production team also supports activities in the Company’s clinical trials and research and development, which are allocated as research and development expense.
Research and Development
Costs related to research, design, development, clinical studies, regulatory activities, and medical affairs are charged to research and development and are expensed as incurred. These costs include, but are not limited to, personnel and related expenses, clinical trials, stock-based compensation costs, third-party consulting costs, the portion of the costs incurred by the production team to support clinical trials and research and development efforts, and allocated overhead, including rent, equipment, depreciation and utilities.
105
Table of Contents
Clinical Trials
The Company accrues and expenses costs for its clinical trial activities performed by third parties, including clinical research organizations and other service providers, based upon estimates of the work completed over the life of the individual study in accordance with associated agreements. The Company determines these estimates through discussion with internal personnel and outside service providers as to progress or stage of completion of trials or services pursuant to contracts with clinical research organizations and other service providers and the agreed-upon fee to be paid for such services.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs includes design and production costs, including website development, testimonial videos, written media campaigns and other items. Advertising costs of $ 2.0 million, $ 1.5 million and $ 778,000 was expensed during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based payments at fair value. The grant date fair value of options granted is measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Option awards vest based on the satisfaction of a service requirement and stock-based compensation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the applicable service period, which is generally four years . For performance-based stock options, the Company will assess the probability of performance conditions being achieved in each reporting period. The amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized in any one period related to performance-based stock options can vary based on the achievement or anticipated achievement of the performance conditions. Forfeitures are recognized in the period in which the forfeiture occurs.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation for restricted stock units at their fair value, based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. These costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is usually the vesting period.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation for its employee stock purchase plan based on the estimated fair value of the options on the date of grant. The Company estimates the grant date fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for each purchase period. These costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the offering period.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. As a result of the history of net operating losses, the Company has provided for a full valuation allowance in the United States against the deferred tax assets for assets that are not more-likely-than-not to be realized.
The Company applies a comprehensive model for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure in the consolidated financial statements of any uncertain tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken on a tax return using a two-step approach. The first step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. For tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon audit, the second step is to measure the tax benefit in the financial statements as the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being sustained upon settlement. Significant judgment is required to evaluate uncertain tax positions. Changes in facts and circumstances could have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate and results of operations. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of provision for income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss is comprised of net loss, changes in unrealized gains and losses on investments classified as available-for-sale and foreign currency translation gains and losses.
Foreign Currency
The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is the local currency except for Heartflow International Sarl, which was the U.S. Dollar. For all non-functional currency balances, the remeasurement of such balances to the functional currency results in either a foreign exchange transaction gain or loss, which is recorded within other income, net within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company recognized foreign exchange transaction losses of $ 216,000 , $ 269,000 and $ 172,000 during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $ 191,000 , $( 271,000 ) and $( 504,000 ) of foreign currency translation gain (loss), respectively, in the statements of comprehensive loss related to foreign subsidiaries which have local functional currencies.
Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, without consideration of potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period. For purposes of the diluted net loss per share calculation, the redeemable convertible preferred stock, common stock warrants, common stock options and restricted stock units are considered to be potentially dilutive securities.
Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities as the redeemable convertible preferred stock and common stock subject to repurchase are considered participating securities. The Company’s participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in the Company’s losses. As such, the net loss is attributed entirely to common stockholders. Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because the effects of potentially dilutive items were anti-dilutive given the Company’s net loss position during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and has elected not to “opt out” of the extended transition related to complying with new or revised accounting standards, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public and nonpublic companies, the Company will adopt the new or revised standard at the time nonpublic companies adopt the new or revised standard and will do so until such time that the Company either (i) irrevocably elects to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (ii) no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company. The Company may choose to early adopt any new or revised accounting standards whenever such early adoption is permitted for nonpublic companies.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires enhanced income tax disclosures, including specific categories and disaggregation of information in the effective tax rate reconciliation, disaggregated information related to income taxes paid, income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit, and income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company adopted ASU 2023-09

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, which requires more detailed disclosures about specified categories of expenses (including employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization) included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The amendments may be applied either (i) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (ii) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement on the disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides a practical expedient related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets that arise from transactions accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The practical expedient permits an entity to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the current accounts receivable and current contract assets. This ASU is effective for the Company on January 1, 2026. The Company does not expect adoption of this pronouncement to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
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, which amends certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of software costs under ASC 350-40 by removing all references to project development stages and provides new guidance on how to evaluate whether the probable-to-complete recognition threshold has been met to begin capitalizing software costs. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The ASU may be applied on a prospective, retrospective or modified prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements.

The 2022 Convertible Notes, which are not regularly traded, are classified as Level 3, since their values cannot be determined by using readily observable inputs or measures, such as market prices (see Note 9). The fair value of the 2022 Convertible Notes was estimated as the sum of its components (conversion features and the debt component) as of the issuance dates and as of the subsequent balance sheet dates. To value each of the conversion features, a “with and without” methodology was employed. The debt component was valued using a discounted cash flow method that measured the net present value of the principal and interest payments to be received by the holders of the 2022 Convertible Notes (excluding the conversion features) through the estimated maturity date.

The Company incurred royalty expense of $ 2.0 million, $ 1.5 million and $ 2.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Purchase Commitments
Open purchase commitments consist of agreements to purchase goods and services that are entered into in the ordinary course of business. These amounts were not recorded as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 as the Company had not yet received the related goods or services. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had estimated open purchase commitments for goods and services of $ 5.2 million over the next four years .
Contingencies
The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceedings that it believes could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows except as discussed below. The Company may pursue or be subject to litigation and other legal actions from time to time arising in the ordinary course of business, including intellectual property, products liability, breach of contract, commercial, employment, and other similar claims which could have an adverse impact on its reputation, business and financial condition and divert the attention of its management from the operation of its business. The Company discloses information regarding each material claim where the likelihood of a loss contingency is probable or reasonable possible and accrues a liability for such matters when it is probable that future expenditures will be made, and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. There were no contingent liabilities requiring accrual or disclosures as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Civil Investigative Demand Investigation
In October 2025, the Company and certain of its employees received civil investigative demands (the “CID”) from the U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Division, in connection with an investigation under the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and Civil False Claims Act (the “Investigation”). The CID requests information, documents, and testimony focused on the Company’s financial and contractual arrangements with providers and its sales and marketing activities. The Company is cooperating with the Investigation and is unable to express a view at this time regarding the likely duration, or ultimate outcome, of the Investigation or estimate the possibility of, or amount or range of, any possible financial impact. Depending on the outcome of the Investigation, there may be a material impact on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.
Indemnifications
The Company provides general indemnifications to management and the members of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) when they act, in good faith, in the best interest of the Company. The Company is unable to develop an estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments that could potentially result from any hypothetical future claim, but expects the risk of having to make any payments under these general business indemnifications to be remote. The Company also maintains insurance coverage that would generally enable the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid.

8. Term Loan
2024 Credit Agreement
On June 14, 2024, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement and Guaranty (the “2024 Credit Agreement”) with Hayfin Services, LLP (“Hayfin”) for a $ 138.1 million term loan (the “2024 Term Loan”) to refinance its outstanding loan obligations under the 2021 Credit Agreement, as amended (the “2021 Credit Agreement”). In addition, in connection with the 2024 Term Loan, the Company entered into several other adjoining agreements with Hayfin. The 2024 Term Loan extended the maturity date from January 19, 2026 to June 14, 2028. The 2024 Credit Agreement was accounted for as a debt modification for accounting purposes.
On January 24, 2025, in connection with the issuance of the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company entered into Amendment No.1 to the 2024 Credit Agreement, in which Hayfin converted $ 23.0 million of principal under the 2024 Term Loan to 2025 Convertible Notes under the same terms as the other purchasers of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The amendment was accounted for as a debt modification for accounting purposes.
Prepayment Terms and Other Fees
Any prepayment or repayment of the principal balance of the 2024 Term Loan was subject to an exit fee. The Company accreted the exit fee over the loan term using the effective interest method. Under the 2024 Term Loan, the Company had the option to prepay the 2024 Term Loan subject to a prepayment fee of 1.5 % for prepayments after the second anniversary but on or prior to the third anniversary of the 2024 Term Loan and a prepayment fee of 3 % for prepayments thereafter. The 2024 Credit Agreement required the Company to repay the loan in full immediately upon the occurrence of a change in control. In addition, immediately upon the consummation of an IPO or SPAC transaction, as defined in the terms of the 2024 Credit Agreement, the Company was required to repay the 2024 Term Loan in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the net cash proceeds of such IPO or SPAC transaction in excess of $ 150.0 million and (ii) $ 35.0 million. In connection with Amendment No.1 to the 2024 Term Loan in January 2025, the amount immediately payable upon the consummation of an IPO or SPAC transaction, as defined in the terms of the 2024 Credit Agreement, was amended where repayment of the 2024 Term Loan was required to be at an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the net cash proceeds of such IPO or SPAC transaction in excess of $ 150.0 million and (ii) $ 50.0 million (or $ 55.0 million if the underwriters exercised any portion of their option to purchase additional shares).
On June 14, 2024, concurrently with entering the 2024 Credit Agreement, the Company signed a fee letter agreement with Hayfin under which the Company agreed to pay $ 9.2 million in fees to Hayfin, which consisted of a 3 % exit fee and a 3 % early prepayment fee due under the 2021 Credit Agreement in the amount of $ 8.3 million payable in sixteen equal quarterly installments of approximately $ 518,000 through March 31, 2028, agent fees of $ 150,000 , due in annual installments of $ 30,000 through March 31, 2028 and an upfront fee of $ 721,000 . The Company paid the $ 721,000 upfront fee and $ 30,000 agent fee upon the closing of the 2024 Term Loan. The exit fee and early prepayment fee was required to be repaid in full immediately upon the occurrence of a financing event, including, but not limited to, any IPO, SPAC transaction, or issuance of convertible notes or equity. The exit fee and early prepayment fee remaining under the original terms of the 2024 Term Loan, which were immediately due and payable upon issuance of the 2025 Convertible Notes, was amended in January 2025 to be immediately due and payable upon the next occurrence of a financing event and was fully repaid on August 18, 2025 upon completion of the Company’s IPO as described above.
On August 18, 2025, the Company repaid $ 55.0 million of indebtedness outstanding under the 2024 Credit Agreement for which it was obligated to pay in connection with the completion of the Company’s IPO and approximately $ 5.8 million in fees consisting of a 3.0 % exit fee and a 3.0 % early prepayment fee due under the 2021 Credit Agreement, as amended.
On August 22, 2025, the Company prepaid in full all outstanding amounts under, and terminated, the 2024 Credit Agreement, in the aggregate principal amount of $ 60.1 million plus accrued interest of $ 1.0 million. The Company did not incur exit or prepayment fees in connection with the termination of the 2024 Credit Agreement.

Interest
During its term, the 2024 Term Loan bore interest at a floating per annum rate in an amount equal to the sum of (i) 7.0 % (or 6.0 % if the alternative base rate (“ABR”) is in effect) plus (ii) the greater of (x) the forward-looking term rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for a respective tenor (or the alternative base rate, if applicable), and (y) 2.0 %. The ABR equals to the sum of (i) 6.0 % plus (ii) the greater of (1) the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate, plus 0.5 %, (2) the Federal Reserve Bank of New York rate plus 0.5 % or (3) CBA Term SOFR for one month tenor plus 1.0 %. The Company had the option to pay interest in-kind at the rate equal to the cash interest rate plus 1.0 %.
Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discount
Debt issuance costs include third-party costs incurred in connection with the original Credit Agreement. Debt discount includes fees paid to the lender, warrants issued to the lender and the embedded derivative liability as described below.
Prior to the refinancing of the 2021 Credit Agreement with the 2024 Term Loan (the “2024 Term Loan Refinancing”), certain prepayment features of the Term Loan, default put option and default interest adjustment features were determined to be embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation and separate accounting for at fair value as a single compound derivative. The fair value of the derivative liability was $ 2.1 million, as of the issuance date in January 2021, and was remeasured to fair value at each reporting period. In connection with the 2024 Term Loan Refinancing, the associated current fair value of the derivative liability of $ 1.1 million was remeasured at the date of refinancing and was derecognized and recorded as a debt discount to the 2024 Term Loan. Refer to Note 13 for additional information.
In connection with the conversion of $ 23.0 million of principal under the 2024 Term Loan to 2025 Convertible Notes under Amendment No.1 to the 2024 Credit Agreement in January 2025, $ 239,000 of pro-rata debt discount under the 2024 Term Loan was reclassified as a debt discount under the 2025 Convertible Notes.
Prior to the term loan repayment in August 2025, the debt issuance costs and debt discount were classified as an offset to the Term Loan on the consolidated balance sheets, and was accreted over the loan term using the effective interest method.
9. Convertible Notes
2022 Convertible Notes
During the period from September 2022 through December 2022, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to certain investors (the “Note Investors”), with an aggregate principal amount of $ 40.0 million (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes bore interest at a rate of 8 % per annum, compounded monthly. The aggregate principal amount and interest accrued on the Convertible Notes was due September 30, 2026, and could not be prepaid by the Company without the consent of a majority of the Note Investors.
In March 2023, the Company completed the IPO, which constituted a Qualified Financing (as defined in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes), and all of the Convertible Notes, including principal and interest, were converted into 21,465,064 shares of Series F-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock and the Company derecognized the Convertible Notes from its consolidated balance sheets. The Company remeasured the fair value of the Convertible Notes immediately before the conversion and recognized a loss of $ 5.1 million from the change in fair value within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2023.
2025 Convertible Notes
In January and March 2025, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to Requisite Holders in the aggregate amount of $ 98.3 million, which was comprised of $ 74.0 million in principal amount of notes issued for cash

consideration, $ 1.3 million in principal amount of notes issued in lieu of cash compensation to certain employees and $ 23.0 million in principal amount of notes issued from the conversion of principal under the 2024 Term Loan. Net cash proceeds was $ 72.8 million after deducting $ 1.2 million of debt issuance costs.
Prior to its conversion upon the Company’s IPO, the 2025 Convertible Notes were due and payable in full 48 months from the issue date and did not accrue interest for one year following the date of issuance. Upon completion of the Company’s IPO in August 2025, the 2025 Convertible Notes automatically converted into 6,470,743 shares of the Company’s common stock at $ 15.20 per share, which was a 20 % discount to the IPO price.
Prior to its conversion upon the Company’s IPO, the 2025 Convertible Notes contained embedded derivative features, including conversion upon a change in control and automatic conversion upon completion of a qualified IPO, that were required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a single derivative instrument. The issuance date estimated fair values of the derivative liability was $ 11.1 million and $ 20.8 million in January and March 2025, respectively, which was accounted for as a debt discount. See Note 13 for additional information. The debt issuance costs and debt discount were classified as an offset to the 2025 Convertible Notes on the consolidated balance sheets, and were accreted over the loan term using the effective interest method. Upon the closing of the Company’s IPO, the remaining unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs of $ 28.8 million were reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
10. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
In March 2023, the Company issued 61,344,029 shares of Series F redeemable convertible preferred stock to existing and new investors at a price per share of $ 2.8505 for an aggregate cash consideration of $ 174.9 million, net of $ 5.9 million issuance costs. Contemporaneously with the issuance of the Series F redeemable convertible preferred stock, the Company converted all of the outstanding Convertible Notes issued by the Company from September 30, 2022 to December 16, 2022, in the aggregate principal amount of $ 40.0 million plus accrued, unpaid interest of $ 994,000 into 21,465,064 shares of Series F-1 redeemable convertible preferred stock at a price per share of $ 1.9098 , which represents a discount of 33 % from the cash purchase price per share. Additionally, in connection with the Series F redeemable convertible preferred stock financing, the cumulative dividends payable to holders of Series C redeemable convertible preferred stock upon a liquidation event were capped from $ 6.66 to $ 8.25 per share depending on the time of issuance, with an aggregate total of $ 88.5 million.
The issuance of the Series F redeemable convertible preferred stock triggered the anti-dilution protection provision for Series B-1, Series B-2, Series C, Series D and Series E stockholders. As a result, the Company recorded a $26.8 million deemed dividend in the amount equal to the change in fair value of the abovementioned series of convertible preferred stock before and after the anti-dilution adjustment.

12. Common Stock Warrant Liability
On January 19, 2021, in connection with entering into the Credit Agreement, the Company issued Hayfin a warrant to purchase 108,154 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $ 0.03 per share. On March 17, 2022, upon amendment to the Credit Agreement, the Company issued Hayfin a warrant to purchase 77,253 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $ 0.03 per share. On March 3, 2023, upon Amendment No. 4 to the Credit Agreement and as a result of antidilution adjustment provisions in connection with the Series F redeemable convertible preferred stock financing, the Company issued Hayfin a warrant to purchase 1,462,260 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $ 0.03 per share (collectively, the “Warrants”).
The aggregate fair value of the Warrants issued in connection with the 2021 Credit Agreement and the amended 2021 Credit Agreement was $ 4.3 million and $ 3.5 million, respectively, at issuance and was recognized as a debt discount and recorded as a warrant liability. The warrant liabilities were remeasured to fair value as of December 31, 2024, resulting in a loss of $ 16.4 million within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
On October 22, 2025, Hayfin net exercised all common stock warrants outstanding for 1,646,317 shares of common stock. The common stock warrant liability was remeasured to fair value through the date of exercise, resulting in a loss of $ 43.9 million within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2025. The final fair value of $ 64.7 million was reclassified to stockholders equity (deficit) on the date of exercise. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were 0 and 1,647,667 warrants to purchase common stock outstanding.
The fair value of the common stock warrant liability was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the following weighted average assumptions:

13. Derivative Liability
Term Loan
Prior to the 2024 Term Loan Refinancing in June 2024, the Term Loan contained certain prepayment features, default put option and default interest adjustment features that were determined to be embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation and separate accounting as a single compound derivative, as discussed in Note 8. The fair value of the derivative liability was recorded at the issuance date as debt discounts and reductions to the carrying value of long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets. The derivative liability is remeasured to fair value at each reporting period and the related changes in fair value are recorded on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Through the time of the 2024 Term Loan Refinancing in June 2024, the Company continued to adjust the derivative liability for changes in fair value of the Term Loan.
Estimating fair values of the derivative liability requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. Since the derivative financial instrument is initially and subsequently carried at fair value, the Company’s income will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.
The derivative liability was remeasured to fair value as of June 14, 2024 and December 31, 2023, resulting in a loss of $ 222,000 and a gain of $ 4.2 million, respectively, within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. In connection with the 2024 Term Loan Refinancing on June 14, 2024, the associated current fair value of the derivative liability of $ 1.1 million as remeasured at the date of refinancing was derecognized and recorded as a debt discount to the 2024 Term Loan.
The fair value of the derivative liability was estimated using a scenario-based analysis comparing the probability-weighted present value of the Term Loan payoff at maturity with and without the bifurcated features. The Company used both the Black-Scholes-Merton and option pricing method to estimate the fair value of the derivative liability because it believes these techniques are reflective of all significant assumption types and ranges of assumption inputs that market participants would likely consider in transactions involving compound embedded derivatives. The option pricing method was employed as part of a back-solve analysis to the Company’s Series F Preferred round of financing. The Company’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of the derivative liability is as follows:

2025 Convertible Notes
The 2025 Convertible Notes were determined to contain certain settlement features and conversion put options which require bifurcation and separate accounting as a single compound embedded derivative, as discussed in Note 9. The fair value of the derivative liability was recorded at the issuance dates as a debt discount and reduction to the carrying value of the 2025 Convertible Notes on the consolidated balance sheets. The derivative liability is remeasured to fair value at each reporting period and the related changes in fair value are recorded on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
The fair value of the derivative liability was estimated using a scenario-based analysis comparing the probability-weighted present value of the 2025 Convertible Notes with and without the bifurcated features. The Company used the Monte Carlo Simulation method to estimate the fair value of the derivative liability because it believes this technique is reflective of all significant assumption types and ranges of assumption inputs that market participants would likely consider in transactions involving compound embedded derivatives. The option pricing method was employed as part of a back-solve analysis for scenarios in which the Company was expected to raise another financing round. The Company also employed a waterfall analysis that allocated certain exit proceeds to its outstanding share classes for scenarios in which the Company was assumed to exit via change of control or IPO. The Company’s assumptions used in determining the issuance date fair value of the derivative liability is as follows:

The issuance date estimated fair values of the derivative liability was $ 11.1 million and $ 20.8 million in January and March 2025, respectively, which were recorded as debt discounts. The derivative liability was remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period and through the date of its conversion to common stock upon the Company’s IPO. The aggregate estimated fair value of the derivative liability at the time of conversion was $ 24.6 million, based on the 20 % discount from the IPO price, which was reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
14. Stock-Based Compensation Plans
In 2009, the Company adopted its 2009 Equity Incentive Plan which provided for the grant of stock options to the Company’s employees, members of the Board of Directors and consultants. Effective upon the Company’s IPO in August 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the termination of the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan and the adoption of the 2025 Performance Incentive Plan (“2025 Plan”). Options granted under the 2025 Plan may be either incentive stock options (“ISOs”) or nonqualified stock options (“NSOs”). ISOs may be granted only to employees. NSOs, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, and Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) may be granted to employees, members of the Board of Directors and consultants. A total of 17,346,193 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2025 Plan. In addition, the shares reserved for issuance under the 2025 Plan will also include shares reserved but not issued under the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, plus any share awards granted under the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan that expire or terminate without having been exercised in full or that are forfeited or repurchased. In addition, the number of shares available for issuance under the 2025 Plan will also include an annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in fiscal 2026, equal to or greater than (i) 5 % of the outstanding shares of common stock as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year less any Board of Directors-approved increase(s) during the preceding fiscal year; or (ii) an amount as determined by the Board of Directors.
Options under the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan and 2025 Plan have a term of ten years from the grant date. The option exercise price will be determined by the Board of Directors, but will be no less than 100 % of the fair market value per share on the date of grant. In addition, in the case of an ISO granted to an employee who owns stock
121

2025 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Effective upon the Company’s IPO, in August 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2025 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2025 ESPP”), under which eligible employees are permitted to purchase common stock at a discount through payroll deductions. A total of 1,233,964 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance and will be increased on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning in 2026, by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 1.0 % of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; or (ii) an amount as determined by the Board of Directors. The price of the common stock purchased will be the lower of 85 % of the fair market value of the common stock at the beginning of an offering period or at the end of a purchase period. The 2025 ESPP is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “IRC”).

Risk-free interest rate

The significant assumptions used in these calculations are summarized as follows:
Fair value of common stock . Because there had been no public market for the Company’s common stock prior to the IPO, the fair value of common stock shares underlying stock options has historically been determined by the Board of Directors at the time of option grant by considering an independent valuation performed by a third-party valuation firm as well as a number of objective and subjective factors, including a valuation of comparable companies, sales of convertible preferred stock to unrelated third parties, operating and financial performance, the lack of liquidity of capital stock and general and industry specific economic outlook, among other factors. The fair value of common stock was determined in accordance with applicable elements of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Practice Aid, Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation. Subsequent to its IPO, the fair value of the underlying common stock is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the date of grant.
Expected term. The expected term of stock options represents the weighted-average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. The Company does not have sufficient historical exercise and post-vesting termination activity to provide accurate data for estimating the expected term of options and has opted to use the “simplified method,” whereby the expected term equals the arithmetic average of the vesting term and the original contractual term of the option.
Expected volatility. As the Company was not publicly traded prior to the IPO and does not have sufficient trading history after the IPO, the expected volatility for the Company’s stock options was determined by using an average of historical volatilities of selected industry peers deemed to be comparable to the Company’s business corresponding to the expected term of the awards.
Risk-free interest rate. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for zero-coupon U.S. Treasury notes with maturities corresponding to the expected term of the awards.
Expected dividend yield. The expected dividend rate is zero as the Company currently has no history or expectation of declaring dividends on its common stock.
The Company also issues stock options with vesting based upon completion of performance goals. The fair value for these performance-based awards is recognized over the period during which the goals are to be achieved. Stock-based compensation expense recognized at fair value includes the impact of estimated probability that the goals would be achieved, which is assessed prior to the requisite service period for the specific goals.

As of December 31, 2025, total unrecognized stock-based compensation costs related to unvested stock options was $ 30.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 3.17 years , a total of $ 17.7 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested RSUs is expected to be recognized over a period of approximately 3.72 years, and $ 762,000 of unrecognized compensation costs related to the ESPP is expected to be recognized over 0.18 years.
In January 2023, the fair value of the Company’s common stock declined from $ 41.67 to $ 2.22 per share, prompting the Company to reduce the exercise price of certain stock options to $ 2.22 , effective July 10, 2023. No other changes to the stock options’ terms were made. The Company calculated the incremental fair value by calculating the fair value of the award immediately before and immediately after the modification. The fair value of the award immediately before the repricing is based on assumptions (including volatility, expected term and risk free interest rate) that reflect the facts and circumstances on the modification date and therefore, differ from the fair value calculated on the grant date. The average additional compensation per award from the modification was $ 0.09 and the aggregate incremental expense was $ 649,000 , of which $ 340,000 was immediately recognized on the modification date and the remaining amount is recognized over the options’ remaining requisite service period.
In March 2023, the Board of Directors approved a repurchase of 102,739 common shares from an employee of the Company at a purchase price of $ 8.32 per share for total consideration of $ 855,000 . The fair value of the repurchased common shares was $ 228,000 , and the difference between the repurchase price and fair value of the common shares of $ 627,000 was recorded as stock-based compensation expense within research and development expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss during the year ended December 31, 2023.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $ 609.9 million and $ 467 .4 million available to reduce future taxable income, if any, for federal and state income tax purposes, respectively. Of these amounts, $ 422.9 million of federal net operating losses are carried forward indefinitely, and are limited to offset 80% of future taxable income. The remaining federal net operating losses will expire starting in 2030. State net operating losses will expire starting in 2026. Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation in certain situations where changes occur in the stock ownership of a company. A Section 382 study of the Company’s historic ownership changes through December 31, 2025 was completed, and the Company determined that certain loss and credit carryforwards are subject to annual limitations under Section 382. The majority of the Company’s tax attributes are expected to be fully available and no longer subject to these annual limitations by 2029, and no tax attributes were identified as being permanently disallowed as a result of Section 382.
The Company also had federal and California research and development credit carryforwards of approximately $ 10.2 million and $ 7.4 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025. The federal credits will expire starting in 2030 , if not utilized. The California credits have no expiration date.
Deferred income taxes have not been provided for undistributed earnings of the Company’s consolidated foreign subsidiaries because of the Company’s intent to reinvest such earnings indefinitely in active foreign operations. The Company believes that future domestic cash generation will be sufficient to meet future domestic cash needs. The Company has no t recorded a deferred tax liability on the undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries. The foreign withholding taxes would not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operation. As of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company had $ 1.1 million. $ 1.1 million and $ 0.6 million, respectively, in unremitted earnings that were indefinitely reinvested related to its consolidated foreign subsidiaries.
The Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $ 9.2 million, $ 8.6 million and $ 8.2 million, respectively, all of which would affect the Company’s income tax expense if recognized before consideration of the Company’s valuation allowance. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of provision for income taxes, in which none was incurred during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

2026 Facility Lease Amendment
On January 5, 2026, the Company amended the lease for its Austin, Texas facility to extend the lease term an additional 51 months through March 2027, with the option to extend for two additional three-year periods. The monthly lease payments are approximately $ 61,000 per month during the amended extension period and provides for a tenant improvement allowance of $ 71,000 .
2026 Mountain View, California Facility Sublease
On March 10, 2026, the Company entered into a sublease agreement (the “Sublease”) with a third-party subtenant to sublease its Mountain View, California facility. The initial term of the Sublease will commence in April 2026 and continues until August 2030, consistent with the remaining term of the Company’s Master Lease, with 52 % occupancy of the facility beginning April 2026 and full occupancy by March 2027. The Sublease provides for an initial annual base rent of approximately $ 1.2 million, which increases annually up to a maximum annual base rent of approximately $ 2.4 million. The subtenant is obligated to pay its ratable portion of operating costs, annual tax costs and all utility costs attributable to the facility during the term of the Sublease. The subtenant will provide the Company with a letter of credit in the amount of $ 0.8 million in place of a security deposit. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this Sublease on the carrying value of the associated ROU asset and leasehold improvements.
Grant of Equity Awards
Subsequent to December 31, 2025, the Company granted options for 913,696 shares of common stock, subject to service-based vesting conditions, with an exercise price of $ 27.74 per share to employees and 1,019,499 shares of restricted stock units subject to service-based vesting conditions.
